基本説明

Contributors to this volume explore the influence of money and other resources on referendum campaigns and their results. Covering a range of countries in Europe and North America, they outline the spending regulations in force and begin to explore the effects these have on referendum outcomes.

Full Description

Critics of referendums often lament that big money may buy success at the ballot box. But spending by interest groups may also be informative for citizens. This can only happen, however, if the financing of referendum campaigns is regulated. This book offers an overview of these regulations and presents research on their effects.
