This is an abstract video from a person in Nepal, demonstrating democracy as a combination of elements, shown here as colors.  Do you think this view of democracy is the same in America, or in other countries?  Do you think the color of nation, or elements that comprise it, determine the power of a nation?

In this video from Spain, the creator addresses the issue of taking democracy around the globe. 

Can you apply democracy on a worldwide scale?  Can these freedoms, highly associated with the American brand, be adapted throughout the world? 

This is one of the "Democracy Is..." Semi final videos from the United States.  You can see how Americans view democracy and the freedoms associated with it. 

Do you think that Americans view democracy as something unique to the US brand? Or do you think that these principals can be exported to different countries around the world?  Is democracy a product that needs to be adapted to local markets?

Democracy is...

Over the next few days, we will be posting a few of the videos from the "Democracy is..." Challenge.  These videos are from all around the world, from people creating videos of what democracy means to them.  In watching the videos, keep in mind how you view democracy, and how it is different from those individuals who created the videos.  Also, do you think democracy is key to the American brand? Do people associate "democracy" with "America?"
