Testing Proposals for a “Democracy of the Future”

Testing Proposals for a “Democracy of the Future” This article suggests three empirical settings to analyze the effects of an extension of democratic voting rights as suggested by Bruno Frey (Homo Oeconomicus 34(1):1–9, 2017). I argue that some of Bruno Frey’s proposals can be analyzed with available observational data from different countries. Empirical evidence from the suggested settings may complement the theoretical debate on a democracy of the future. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Homo Oeconomicus Springer Journals

Abstract

This article suggests three empirical settings to analyze the effects of an extension of democratic voting rights as suggested by Bruno Frey (Homo Oeconomicus 34(1):1–9, 2017). I argue that some of Bruno Frey’s proposals can be analyzed with available observational data from different countries. Empirical evidence from the suggested settings may complement the theoretical debate on a democracy of the future.
