Andreas on democracy:

“Let us speak about the how, not about whether or not.

In todays democracies, the sovereignty of the people is often limited by political and economic elites. The political decision-making process is mostly not transparent and not-bounded to the citizens. Direct democracy and citizen participation can therefore contribute to increase the legitimacy of decision making and of the democratic system.

The rise of direct democracy initiatives worldwide shows that citizens are interested and motivated to be part of the discussion and more important, in the decision-making process.”
