Highlights from Switzerland

I spent a week in Switzerland reporting and attending a gathering for a new organization, the World Democracy Forum, that brings together journalists, academics and others interested in initiatives and referenda. Here are links to some of the items I filed from Switzerland: Uruguay and a Common Language of Direct Democracy, Word of the Day, Stat of the Day, World Democracy Forum, The Germans on the Bus, Think Like a Philosopher and Write Like a Farmer, The Initiative Monk, The Swiss Skepticism Of Ballot Initiatives, The Wisdom Of Voting in More Than One Place, Turnout Apologies, The Home of William Tell, and More Choice for Voters Here.
