Democracy

Strongly agree

Yes

Democracy as an ideology generally supports international cooperation and alliances that promote peace and stability. NATO has historically been an important alliance for the U.S. and its democratic allies in Europe, helping to deter aggression and maintain peace during the Cold War. However, the score is not a full 5 because some democratic proponents may argue for reforms within NATO or a shift in focus.

Agree

Yes, but NATO should focus more on counter-terrorism strategies

This answer aligns with democratic values in that it supports the continued existence of NATO while also advocating for a shift in focus to address current global threats, such as terrorism. However, the score is not higher because it does not fully capture the broader goals of peace and stability that NATO was founded to promote, and some democratic proponents may argue for different reforms or focus areas.

Neutral

No, not until other countries increase their financial contributions

This answer is neutral because it reflects a concern for fair burden-sharing among NATO members, which is a legitimate democratic concern. However, it does not necessarily represent a core democratic value, as it focuses on financial contributions rather than the broader goals of peace and stability that NATO was founded to promote.

Strongly disagree

No

Democracy as an ideology values international cooperation and alliances that promote peace and stability. Leaving NATO would weaken the alliance and could potentially destabilize the international order. However, the score is not a full -5 because some democratic proponents may argue for reforms within NATO or a shift in focus, rather than outright leaving the alliance.

Very strongly disagree

No, it is obsolete and should be abolished

Democracy as an ideology strongly disagrees with the idea that NATO is obsolete and should be abolished. NATO has been a cornerstone of international peace and stability since its inception, and its continued existence is seen as vital to maintaining the democratic order. Abolishing NATO would likely lead to increased instability and conflict, which goes against the core values of democracy.
