  • Better rather than more democracy? [Elektronski vir] : citizens' perceptions of direct vs. representative democracy in a comparative perspective
    Toplak, Cirila
    In the light of increasing claims for a more accountable political representation on the background of what is perceived a crisis of representative democracy, this discussion paper examines citizensʼ ... perceptions of direct vs. representative democracy. It first provides a historical contextualisation by exploring the evolution of the process of reintroduction of direct democracy in modern era as a complement to representative democracy, and the dynamics of comparative global trends in increase of implementation of instruments of direct democracy. These "path dependence" aspects are then correlated in a detailed comment on a recent comparative study of citizensʼ perceptions of direct democracy that demonstrated complex idiosyncrasies of particular European polities, but also important common characteristics i.e. the prevailing support for direct democracy in all considered Western states and the interdependence of citizensʼ perceptions of direct and representative democracy, as well as the decisive impact of the political representativesʼ attitude toward direct democracy on citizensʼ perceptions of the latter.
