“Voce al popolo”: la Svizzera nella transizione ecologica tra votazioni, riconoscimento e protezione

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The ecological transition in Switzerland is proceeding by means of both strategies and action plans proposed at its three institutional levels (federal, cantonal, municipal) and specific votes directed at the population, the true sovereign element of the confederate nation. This interlocking structure, however, can slow down and hinder the approval of urgent issues such as climate change. The contribution intends first to show the objectives of the Helvetic Confederation, then to focus on its particular semi-direct structure. Finally, problems in the implementation of certain elements of the energy strategy and local initiatives to bring about a change in mentality ‘from below’ are highlighted.
