Abstract (english)

The paper deals with referendum initiatives in Croatia, identifying reasons for the prohibition and restriction of implementation of referendum initiatives. It provides an overview of previous research on referendum decision-making, compares current and future legal framework for referendum decision-making in Croatia, provides an overview of referendum topics in related democracies such as Hungary, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland and at EU level via European Citizens’ Initiative. Furthermore, this paper proposes three models for which the author believes to be the ones that should improve referendum decision-making such as - a) alternative referendum question, b) banned referendum topics and c) exclusively advisory referendum on specific topics. The main units of analysis of this paper are referendum initiatives, and the basis for the proposed models are ways of regulating this issue in similar democracies.
