Title How referendums challenge European democracy : brexit and beyond / Richard Rose Author Rose, Richard, 1933- (Author) Publication Cham : Palgrave Macmillan, [2020] Copyright notice date ©2020 Scope xvii, 236 stran : ilustrace ; 22 cm Country Switzerland Language English Edition Palgrave studies in European Union politics Note Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy a bibliografie Annotation "This book explains how citizens are using referendums to challenge decisions taken by the European Union. The opening chapters compare the two chief institutions of electoral democracy: parliamentary elections to decide who governs, and referendums to decide policies. The EU relies on international treaties for its authority to make policies. Chapters analysing referendum voting on Europe in Britain, Greece and the Netherlands show that cultural values can have a stronger influence than class. The book uses Brexit – the British referendum in which a majority voted for the UK leaving the European Union – as the leading example of a conflict between national voters and the EU." --Cover Výrazy tezauru referendum * demokracie * členství v Evropské unii * Evropská unie Klasifikační znaky 0416 - Volební proces a hlasování 0406 - Politický rámec 1016 - Struktura Společenství ISBN 978-3-030-44116-6 Copy count 1, currently available 0 Document kind Studie Call number Location Info F 89223 PSS - Poslanecká sněmovna vypůjčený (until 25.03.2025)
