democratic/knowledge=capacity?

English translation: democracy/knowledge hypothesis

12:30 Sep 9, 2013
English language (monolingual) [PRO]
Social Sciences - Linguistics / term
English term or phrase: democratic/knowledge=capacity?
The whole sentence like this:" The absence of falsification conditions, the presence of the predicted institutional features, and the apparent correlation between capacity and democracy do not yield an irrefutable proof of the democracy/knowledge hypothesis."

I wonder if democratic/knowledge=capacity or not?

Selected answer:democracy/knowledge hypothesis
Explanation:
No. It should remain as in the source text. This appears to be a hypothesis involving a relationship between the variables of "democracy" and "knowledge".
