Description

Explore the complex relationship between democratic principles and electoral participation in this comprehensive Routledge academic study. The book addresses whether voting constitutes a civic duty and examines the thorny question of whether compulsory voting can coexist with democratic values. Anthoula Malkopoulou provides expert analysis of electoral abstention, presenting the contemporary debate surrounding liberty, equality and democracy whilst questioning the enforceability of voting obligations. This work is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding how European nations have approached voter participation, the philosophical foundations of compulsory voting systems, and the broader implications for democratic governance. Ideal for students, academics and policymakers seeking rigorous examination of voting practices and democratic theory.
