Opis

The aim of this work is to analyze the introduction of the instruments of the Swiss political model in Poland. Is the Swiss kind of direct democracy, which has no counterpart in any other country, an advantageous factor for the development and functioning of the decision making process in Poland?The thesis of this work states that the introduction of direct democratic instruments in Poland: referendum, popular initiative and people's veto, is possible and it would be a progress for the polish political system and for society in Poland.As a result, the people would start to feel co-responsible for the present and the future of the country. On the other hand, those who have been rather passive up to this point would gain a sense of being appreciated and needed, which would reignite their interest in politics.
