Abstract The referendum is a multidimensional instrument, attested and practiced worldwide, considered to be a compulsory feature of democracy, provided it is used under strict lawfulness. The purpose of putting it into practice is to know the sovereign will of the people, expressed by vote, on a particular issue subject to its decision-making capacity. Following the referendum process, and in the case of referendum forms, such as the legislative or decision-making process, the referendum generates the obligation for the governing authorities to implement the decision adopted by the people. It is certain that the people’s response to the referendum question materializes a decision that emanates from the people, and which benefits in this way of increased legitimacy. Legitimacy is a concept that unleashes the force of the referendum, the result of which is imposed on everyone, the minority who voted against, and the governors. Legitimacy gives an institutional sense to the referendum, being an immanent part of the entire referendum process. It comes from the principle of the sovereign will of the people, which once expressed, is imposed on all the executive factors that must apply it. Legitimacy is both an intrinsic quality of the referendum and its effect, as it gives force to the outcome and justifies any political, legislative or administrative action or inaction. If the referendum process were deprived of legitimacy, or the resulting decision would be denied of this supreme attribute, then the referendum would be an artificial institution, empty of content, virtually useless.

公民投票的合法性-参与式民主的标准机制

摘要全民公决是一项在世界范围内得到证明和实践的多维工具,只要在严格的合法性下使用,就可以视为民主的强制性特征。付诸实践的目的是要了解人民在决定权的前提下对特定问题以投票表示的主权意志。在进行全民投票之后,就全民投票形式而言,例如立法或决策过程,全民投票产生了理事机构执行人民通过的决定的义务。可以肯定的是,人民对全民投票问题的回应体现了人民作出的决定,并通过增加合法性而受益。合法性是释放公投力量的概念,结果强加于所有人,投票反对的少数派和州长。合法性使全民投票具有体制意义,是整个公投过程不可或缺的一部分。它源于人民的主权意志原则,该原则曾经表达过,它强加于必须适用该原则的所有行政因素。合法性既是全民投票的内在品质,也是其效果的一部分,因为它赋予结果以力量,并为任何政治,立法或行政行动或不作为辩护。如果公投程序被剥夺了合法性,或者最终的决定将被剥夺这一最高属性,那么公投将是一个人为的机构,内容不多,实际上是无用的。合法性使全民投票具有体制意义,是整个公投过程不可或缺的一部分。它来自于人民的主权意志原则,该原则曾经表达过,它强加于必须实行的所有行政因素。合法性既是全民投票的内在品质,也是其效果的一部分,因为它赋予结果以力量,并为任何政治,立法或行政行动或不作为辩护。如果公投程序被剥夺了合法性,或者最终的决定将被剥夺这一最高属性,那么公投将是一个人为的机构,内容不多,实际上是无用的。合法性使全民投票具有体制意义,是整个公投过程不可或缺的一部分。它来自于人民的主权意志原则,该原则曾经表达过,它强加于必须实行的所有行政因素。合法性既是全民投票的内在品质,也是其效果的一部分,因为它赋予结果以力量,并为任何政治,立法或行政行动或不作为辩护。如果公投程序被剥夺了合法性,或者最终的决定将被剥夺这一最高属性,那么公投将是一个人为的机构,内容不多,实际上是无用的。施加于必须应用它的所有执行因素上。合法性既是全民投票的内在品质,也是其效果的一部分,因为它赋予结果以力量,并为任何政治,立法或行政行动或不作为辩护。如果公投程序被剥夺了合法性,或者最终的决定将被剥夺这一最高属性,那么公投将是一个人为的机构,内容不多,实际上是无用的。施加于必须应用它的所有执行因素上。合法性既是全民投票的内在品质,也是其效果的一部分,因为它赋予结果以力量,并为任何政治,立法或行政行动或不作为辩护。如果公投程序被剥夺了合法性,或者最终的决定将被剥夺这一最高属性,那么公投将是一个人为的机构,内容不多,实际上是无用的。
