Introduction In this analysis, the rational choice theory and sociological theory have been used to evaluate the democratic institutions. Under, the sociological theory, the focus would be centered on the corporatism 1 . Democracy refers to a set of principles that are considered to be very fundamental to the continuity of humanity 2 . Although the actual concept of democracy varies from one democratic institution to another, the bottom line is that its main motive is to ensure that there is sovereignty of the populace. In addition, the concept of democracy makes sure that the elements such as civil liberty, political pluralism, and equality before in the civil societies should be allowed to operate outside the governments. Democratic institutions always tend to be characterized by a sense of majority rule, though in some cases there have been incidences of the majority decisions, which oppress the minority groups. Importantly, the people should not allow the minority to control or hold hostage the entire country because of their own personal interest 3 . The Rational Choice Theory This theory is centered on the assumption that the behaviors of individuals are reflected in the society. That is what is evidenced at the societal level as a reflection of basically what people see and can enjoy fully while incurring the least cost. People will always compare what they have to spend and what they get in return. Therefore, individuals can judge the state of particular societies and conclude that it is their desire to derive the greatest satisfaction without having to spend a lot of resources 4 . In the political theory, the rational choice is what moulds voters, politicians, bureaucrats, autocrats, and others to behave in a particular manner. In most cases, the dictators prefer to undermine the value of education in the states that they govern so that the civilians continue to suffer from apathy, thus allowing them to cling to power for long 5 . In fact, it is common knowledge that the implication of such actions would lead to increased levels of crime and weak economy, which cannot be easily avoided in the long run. This theory also explains why in some countries, the citizens are more concerned in participating in the political processes than in other matters. For example, countries where people are enlightened with the fact that their daily lives are centered around politics. In fact, their economy will depend on the policies of the people they elect in leadership positions. Besides, they will tend to highly participate in electoral processes more than those from the society where people do not understand the significance of good governance. For instance, when a state is taken a democratic institution, it is very easy to understand the extent of democracy based on the awareness and information that the citizens of that country have on their rights, freedom, and how they engage their elected leaders towards the new birth of democracy 6 . Indeed, the rational choice theory helps in understanding the types of democracies that exist in the social and political system, as analyzed in the following discussion. The rational choice theory postulates that, what many democratic institutions tend to concentrate on as the signs of democracy are certain ideal functions such
