Radical democracy and left wing politics

[mm at iniref.org]

_Opinion_

The Left with all reformist and radical groups should become MUCH more 
active to promote citizen-led direct democracy.

*Partial direct democracy* means introducing new methods in order to 
improve the *indirect* democracy of parties and parliament. These 
methods include the citizens' law proposal (initiative), the citizens' 
referendum to veto government policy or law, and the "recall" of elected 
office holders such as MPs, local councillors and city mayors.

See some arguments which have been posted online at Indymedia:
