- Synopsis
- Ballot democracy, populist democracy, democracy by initiative, referendum, and recall-however one labels it-is only one hundred years old in the United States and has been in and out of fashion during that time. At the writing of this book there was a resurgence of interest in new kinds of forces trying to overturn legislative and executive fiat by direct ballot. In this book Thomas Cronin suggests why this is so, how it is working, and what should be done.
