中文摘要 | 支持和反對公民投票(簡稱公投)的論點皆曾對其施行效果做出理論上的假設。 然而檢證這些假設的實證研究卻相當零散,致使眾說紛紜,無一系統性的看法。本文比較美 國、英國、法國、瑞士和義大利五國之公投經驗,據此檢證其幾項理論性之假設。本文發現 中介機構遍存於五國公投制度,因此實踐公投並不全然是民粹主義。其次公投的性質常決定 其用途。例如節制式公投易被政黨和政治人物所利用;反觀群眾式公投則多少牽制政府濫權 。固然公投的法定效力足以拘束政府,但其設定議程的威力則可以迫使政府或相關團體事先 讓步。這種設定議程的威力應是我們日後研究公投之重點。 |
英文摘要 | Arguments for and against referendum are often based on certain theoretical hypotheses of its practice. However, very little empirical work, with the exception of a few case studies, has been done to test these hypotheses. As a result, the merits and defects of referendum are still in dispute. In this paper, I compare referendum experiences of Switzland, France, Italy, Britain, and the United States. Based on these experiences, I examine various hypotheses of referendum. I find that referendums in these five countries are often mediated by governments or parties, which help to contain the populist impulses of the masses. In addition, I argue that the impact of referendums often extend beyond their legal premises. As a result, I suggest that more attention should be paid to the agenda setting effect of referendum. |
