have decided to create the "Week of direct democracy in 2011" campaign to improve the Italian democracy and create awareness among citizens of their important role with respect to the institutions . Week will take place the last week of May to 2 June Republic Day that, as is known, was established by referendum in 1946.
The purpose of this national initiative is to disseminate knowledge on the instruments of direct democracy that exist and function for many decades in the world and gain practical tools for direct participation of citizens in local politics and regional authorities to have a say in the management of their communities.
In this sense, the eight organizations have launched an appeal to join in this initiative to all local groups, associations and civic lists that are actually working to improve our society. To join just go to the website of the Italian Civic Network ( www.retecivicaitaliana.it ) and click on the appropriate flag http://retecivicaitaliana.it/le-iniziative/democrazia-diretta
agree that Italian democracy, based solely on representative democracy can not function well, it must be supplemented by direct democracy, or with tools that enable citizens to interact with the work of elected representatives to exercise effectively sovereignty which is discussed in the first article of the constitution.
In May or June of 2011 we will return to talk about referendum, one of the few instruments of direct democracy enjoyed by Italians . You will have to vote for the repeal of the Act 99 of 2009 which re-admit the nuclear and Italy is to vote on water public. The referendum has lost its effectiveness over time due to the misuse and poor information from all the traditional parties that generally avoid, with the most varied pretexts, to empower citizens. It 's time for a change!

Annex depth
How is the Week of Direct Democracy in June 2011.
Period: From 23 May to 2 June 2011, the date of Republic Day, which was established through a referendum. We would not be hard on the period in the sense that if an interesting event is planned just outside of the week will be included in the overall program, without problems.
General objective: to "inform" the public about innovative instruments of direct democracy and participatory exist in the world, making him know his rights and obligations under the Italian Constitution and the positive aspects of direct democracy seen as essential to integration of representative democracy to make our full democracy and full .
Aim for long-term opportunities to improve our national legislation in the initiative (also called a referendum proposing) and the optional referendum confirmed (every new law passed by parliament before coming into force may be subject to a referendum if we collect firme necessarie nel tempo stabilito). Il tutto con l’ abolizione del quorum dei votanti , come negli altri paesi a democrazia diretta più avanzata.
In altre parole dotare i cittadini di acceleratore e di freno dell’azione legislativa dando loro la possibilità di avere potere decisionale nell’agenda politica.

Obiettivi specifici della settimana della democrazia diretta :
A1 - In generale far crescere la consapevolezza dei cittadini circa il fatto che sono anche “sovrani”. Far conoscere le existing experiences in other states where direct democracy works and the benefits that entails. To publicize the holds of the Constitution on which we based our demands (eg the latest constitutional revisions Italian). Illustration of possible regulations to introduce greater democracy at the municipal, regional and national levels.
A2 - In the short term plans to create groups of citizens (Listings civic associations and local committees, movements etc.). Which really promote direct democracy at the level of their municipality (or province or region) giving them concrete tools to make a critical analysis of proprio statuto comunale e attuare una campagna locale per introdurre strumenti di Democrazia Diretta efficaci con la possibilità di promuovere / cassare atti amministrativi della propria amministrazione.
A3 – Creare / estendere la rete per la Democrazia Diretta esistente ad altri gruppi locali affinché ci si sostenga a vicenda con l’obiettivo di arrivare in tempi “non geologici” a strumenti avanzati di democrazia diretta in Italia (quorum zero, iniziativa, referendum facoltativo confermativo).
Come organizzarla. Adotteremo il sistema che ha usato Rete Lilliput for the National Tour Mathis Wackernagel ( www.footprintnetwork.org ) during the Week of the 'ecological footprint' in the early 2000) is:
- The organizing group care overall coordination, organize specialized courses, provides speakers and illustrative material to be distributed on-site care communication in general
- local groups facilitate the achievement of the meetings by finding the halls, asking for sponsorship and funding local authorities, taking care of the communication on site.

We are planning to organize an event about forty. As speakers we have for now Benedikter Thomas and Stephan Lausch (Initiative for more democracy - Bolzano) for North-East, Paul Michelotto www.paolomichelotto.it more democracy Rovereto (TN ), Bruno Citizens' Committee in April of Direct Democracy, Dario Rinco Civic Network of Italian, Pino Strange Democrats headed.
The criterion is to maximize resources and therefore would be appropriate to seek to do major events in each Italian region.

Those interested should fill out the form found on the website of the Italian Civic Network www.retecivicaitaliana.it -> click "Direct Democracy".
point out that there are books available on the subject that could be used to finance themselves locally (Thomas Benedikter - Democracy direct more power to probe public-editions Michelotto Paul - Democracy Citizens - ed. Troll Books, Valerio Onida - The constitution - ed. The mill). A special 100-page handbook, more synthetic, è allo studio. Sui siti segnalati a fianco dei mittenti è possibile trovare molta documentazione; si segnala in calce una serie di link interessanti.
Le proposte di slogan per la campagna sono : “Vivere meglio con più democrazia” e “Più potere ai cittadini”.
Sono previsti corsi di formazione che verranno attuati in funzione delle adesioni che riceveremo.
Gli aderenti dovrebbero iniziare a pensare quali possano essere le problematiche che localmente potrebbero fare presa on their community: the campaign will be supported in other words, with examples easily understood by most people living in that particular territory. For example, citizens of a municipality may have a problem that local government does not address. DD with his instruments that give citizens more power could lead to a resolution to fix it.
