Le Regard Libre N° 65 - Jonas Follonier
Democracy as we know it in Switzerland is a precious asset. It's based on a simple idea: that everyone should be able to express their opinion. But not just any old way: on the contrary, Swiss citizens are used to having to argue, confront their opinions with those of others, reflect, contribute to public debate, or simply pay attention. In short, democracy lives, 365 days a year. We hardly realize how lucky we are.
