"Votare non basta. Il patto eletto-elettore nella crisi democratica"

In Nuova Umanità XXX, 178-179 (2008/4-5) : 423-51 . ISSN 2240-2527

Abstract: Democracy requires its elected leaders to account for their actions, especially when it comes to voting time. For a growing number of electors, however, participation in the life of the polis has to be more that simply putting a mark on the ballot paper.
