Question
Dictatorship and referendum.
✓
Answer
The role of referendum in democracy is important and crucial.
Democracy has to rely on referendum to gain, sustain or increase power.
In dictatorial governments, referendums try to show that they are in their favor.
In some cases the dictator serves as a force to be reckoned with as soon as he comes to power, forcibly crushing the tools of the opposition referendum and its formulation and expression.
In a system of authoritarian rule, the referendum and the media have a monopoly on turning to itself.
Thus, even in non-democratic regimes, rulers try to show that the referendum is in their favor.
