what is the principle of direct democracy
Answers
On June 23rd, 2016, citizens of the United Kingdom made the consequential decision to leave the European Union—that is, a decision over various subject matters of cooperation and participation in a large number of treaties. About a year later, with a ‘Brexit’ plan nowhere in sight, former Prime Minister David Cameron said that “the lack of a referendum was poisoning British politics,” and that he “put it right.” Following years long, deadlocked negotiations over a Brexit deal, large parts of the British public are demanding a second People’s Vote. Taking stock of the fact that Brexit was supposed to happen by will of the people, but has not, The Economist diagnosed a constitutional crisis, stating that the referendum has brought into light the question of where sovereignty lies in the UK.
As evidenced by Brexit, the use of direct democratic institutions for political decision-making processes is controversial. As constitutions, which build the very foundation for development, are being re-written across the world, it is essential to discuss the use and pitfalls of direct democracy. It is indeed a fundamental question of governance in developed and developing countries.
