Based on the author's first-hand experience, majority-voting is argued to be a catalyst of populism and its divisive outcomes have prompted countless disputes throughout Europe and Asia. In like manner, simple majority rule is seen as a cause of conflict in war zones, and of dysfunction in so-called stable democracies. In order to safeguard democracy, an all-party power-sharing approach is proposed, which would make populism less attractive to voters and governments alike. In geographically arranged chapters, well-tested alternative voting procedures (e. g. non-majoritarian Modified Borda Count) are presented in case studies of Northern Ireland, Central Europe, the Balkans, the Caucasus, Russia, China, North Korea and Mongolia. .ElectionsDemocracyWelfare economicsPolitical sciencePeaceElectoral Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911070Democracyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911050Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31020Governance and Governmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911220Conflict Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912060Peace Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912070Elections.Democracy.Welfare economics.Political science.Peace.Electoral Politics.Democracy.Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy.Governance and Government.Conflict Studies.Peace Studies.324.6321.8Emerson Peterauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut790031MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910369928303321Majority Voting as a Catalyst of Populism2266162UNINA00881nam a2200229 i 450099100435503630753620241203124658.0241203s1977 it a er 000 0 ita dBibl.
