The danger of the spread of the referendum-type greek
The rules require respect for democratic decisions taken on the popular level, of which the referendum is the best expression. This type of consultation is not constantly used, as it would render the meaning of elections and then the very meaning of representation, itself a cornerstone of democratic life, but exceptionally in special cases considered to be of greater importance. Now the fact of entrusting power to the people express their thoughts on regulations, the result of international agreements, which go directly to regulate the criteria of quality of life that can not be manifestly fair. But the problem is that a referendum is never proactive, but repeal the decision and the consequences, whatever it is, results are included in the same urn. The preamble serves to focus the effects of the possible spread of the referendums on the matter of economic agreements following the reduction of the debt of the states. The considerations must be made in both directions, since there might be another proposal for the German people, will issue an opinion on the contribution to aid other states. If something is self-determination, however limited, of the population, which ultimately can only say yes or no, on the other hand there is the failure of representative political institutions and the very way of practicing democracy, characterized by low participation and for the possibility of limited access, and also for the lack of civic sense in this, unfortunately. However, while looking with sympathy to the instrument of the referendum, and especially in cases like this, the phenomenon that is likely to trigger adverse effects that can bring more positive, of course the ultimate would be the presence of a political class able to charge the real culprits, including which own a substantial part of it, the financial collapse we are experiencing, but if this were true he would not at this point. And though one end of the common European set back the clock 40 years, creating the countries most vulnerable in front of the phenomena of globalization, immigration and international terrorism, to name a few. The example of Iceland is fascinating but it is important for both economic and political dimensions of the Nordic country could be more convincing if the greek, although it should be limited to being a good test for both internal and external effects. But if the Greeks want, in a sense, be doomed to a fate, because the EU requires sacrifices, but it would still be out a lot worse, what they do not take into account is the domino effect that should lead to. However, this situation can be reconstructed from the European Union not only utilitarian but really on a cooperative based on shared values actually, even if renegotiation in order to promote effectively the population instead of the great financiers and banking groups. To prevent the spread of the epidemic referendum, albeit from right conditions that would have harmful effects, must charge the actual economic cost of the crisis on those subjects, as well as caused it, they have also drawn large gain, only that mitigating the social costs the majority of the population can be induced most of the company the right to accept sacrifices in the right measure.
