Synopsis

This book explores the intricate architecture of democratic governance through the lens of a Proportional, Integral, Derivative (PID) control system. By analyzing the roles of the Executive, Judiciary, and Legislative branches, it reveals the necessity of a balanced democratic operation, where the collective influence of the Executive and Legislative is at least ten times more pronounced than the Judiciary. The work examines the temporal roles each branch plays—Executive in the present, Judiciary in the past, and Legislative for the future—while setting a foundation for future research on the dynamic interactions among the three powers. Additionally, it addresses critical issues like checks and balances, anti-corruption measures, media influence, and the role of political entities and armed forces. This comprehensive, mathematically-grounded approach offers a fresh perspective for scholars and policymakers facing the evolving challenges of democracy.
