ABSTRACT
Democratization is a portmanteau expression which can mean many things, including some aspects of what is happening now in the internal political life of the successor states of the Soviet empire. The human beings kept under the most Tartuffian system of ideological hypocrisy, political, ideological and moral, want to achieve spiritual, intellectual and moral liberalization. 'Free market' was not only an economic command of the West; it had to be associated with 'political freedom'. The end of the cold war, it has generally been hoped and believed that the event marked the return of the rest of humankind to Western freedom, that is to the macro-economic normality of the world market, the usual normality of democracy, and the usual normality of daily individual lives. The mixed expression of 'socialist market' remains a contradiction in terms, and the political egalitarianism of democracy is only a surrogate for the real egalitarianism sought by the poor of capitalist society.
