The answer to this question is democracy. Democracy is a form of government where the power is exerted by the citizens - directly or through their representatives. It is the opposite of other forms of government such as autocracy (government of one person) or oligarchy (government of a few). In a democratic society all members have the same rights.

That kind of government is called Democracy.

Democracy (from the late Latin democratĭa, and this from the Greek δημοκρατία dēmokratía) is a form of social organization that attributes the ownership of power to the whole of citizenship. Strictly speaking, democracy is a form of State organization in which collective decisions are adopted by the people through mechanisms of direct or indirect participation that confer legitimacy on their representatives. In a broad sense, democracy is a form of social coexistence in which members are free and equal and social relations are established according to contractual mechanisms.
