Which is not a device of a direct democracy ?

  • A.Referendum
  • B.Recall
  • C.Election
  • D.Initiative

Answer: C

The device that does not belong to direct democracy is Election.

Electing representatives is the basic mechanism of indirect or representative democracy: citizens choose others to decide for them.

The referendum (voting on a law or issue), the recall (removing an elected official before the term ends) and the initiative (citizens proposing a law) all let the people decide directly, and are the classic devices of direct democracy, used widely in Switzerland.
