โฆ Synopsis
Direct democracy typically is lauded for putting power in the hands of the people. But is it really as democratic as it seems?

Addressing these issues, Shauna Reilly draws on and compares case studies of referendums, recall elections, and initiatives around the world to investigate the complex realities of direct democracy in action.
