===[[File:Literocrat.png]] Literocracy ===

[[File:Literocrat.png]] '''Literocracy''' can act as either a form of liberal non-democracy or as an [[File:Authdem.png]] electocracy (perhaps even as [[File:Technocracy.png]] semi-technocracy), in which the right to vote is restricted on the basis of literacy. How this is determined by the state can range, but literocrats usually argue for literacy tests as a means of determining conditional suffrage. While not antithetical to [[File:Pop.png]] populism or extremism, it may correlate with a reduction in the influence of both within [[File:Repdemgen.png]] representative government. As a result, it may also lend itself to [[File:Elitism.png]] elitism. The most infamous example of literocracy in history is likely the [[File:Dixiecrat.png]] Jim Crow South, where literacy tests were often used as 'educational requirements,' disproportionately excluding [[File:Blacknat.png]] Black Americans from voting due to segregated schooling. This segregation reinforced and exacerbated the subpar quality of schools attended by Black students compared to those attended by White students, affecting overall Black turnout.

There are five types of illiberal democracies: Bonapartist, Fascist, Democratic Centralist, People's Democratic, and Machiavellian. The Bonapartians believe that when the authoritarian leader is elected he should have the confidence of the people and that the enlightened authority that is responsive to the needs and clamour of the people.<ref>Napoleon was elected as Emperor of the French by a tally exceeding 99%.[106] As with the Life Consulate two years earlier, this referendum produced heavy participation, bringing out almost 3.6 million voters to the polls.

One could argue that the Bonapartist conception of an empire is an [[File:Emon.png]] Electocratic monarchy, where referendums are used to impose enlightened absolutism, but ending popular participation afterwards, whether direct or representative.
