Languages of Democracy: Can codifying discourses reveal democratic systems?

In 2009, my countryman Charles Taylor explained that language, in Western philosophy, can be codified as a means to represent reality and as a means to change reality. Differently put, we use language to say what is real and what, about reality, should for some reason be changed. Stepping from this framing, I apply this analysis to a large data set (a 3000+ trove of academic essays in/of/on/from the field that I have curated). The results of this analysis reveal that there are many languages of democracy in the field of democracy studies. This finding was anticipated as in my day-to-day I encounter these languages in common discourse. Also anticipated was how certain languages of democracy are spoken more than others, and how all languages meet the "what is" and "should change" aspects of language. Further research is required to map how languages of democracy exist in defined human associations such as polities, organisations, families and so forth. I believe this inquiry to be a means for understanding real-existing democratic systems which, I argue, is of value to deepening democracy/democratizing/resisting non-democratic dynamics as it helps to understand which ideas are in play, among whom, and how they may go together or contest one another. * The core focus of my paper is on the further research aspect as the lead is descriptive, supported with raw data in appendices, and is otherwise rapid to work through in the introduction.
