Lecture

Decision-Making Process in Swiss Politics

Description

This lecture covers the decision-making process in Swiss politics, starting with the agenda-setting and initiation of reforms, followed by the pre-parliamentary phase, parliamentary phase, direct-democratic phase, and implementation phase. The lecture emphasizes the slow and incremental changes in the process, with a focus on the revalorisation of the Parliament since the 1990s. It also discusses the three powers in Swiss political institutions, the legislative process involving various actors, and the central role of interest groups in Swiss politics, including major economic associations and their implications in the political decision-making process.
