Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Nonresponsiveness is a characteristic of nondemocratic governments such as dictatorships, aristocracies, monarchies, and so forth. When the democratic process encourages the government to formulate and implement policies that citizens desire, this is called "democratic responsiveness." At each level, the links that connect citizens' preferences, voting choices, choosing officials, and policies can be broken. Significant conceptual challenges are also caused by the complexity of public choices and uncontrolled circumstances that influence policy results. Control over information, the incoherence of party policy rhetoric, unrepresentative election outcomes, officials switching parties after elections, use of executive decrees, bait and switch campaign techniques, and policymaking corruption are among the subversions.
The correct statement is that unresponsiveness is a characteristic of nondemocratic governments.
