CHAPTER XI DIRECT POPULAR ACTION 67. The Referendum The inroads made on the representative system in the United States bring us to a consideration of the second method of expressing pubHc opinion, that of direct popular action. In America this is in part a native growth and in part a recent imi- tation of Swiss institutions. Only two effective methods of direct action by the people have yet been devised: a popular assembly which can debate before it votes; and a ballot cast at the polls without... a general meeting of the voters.
68. The Town Meeting Popular assemblies have existed at various times from the dawn of history to our own day, the examples most familiar to us being the Athenian ecclesia, the Swiss landsgemeinde, and the town meeting of New England.^ Obviously they can be used only when the community is compact enough to permit the citizens to come together easily, and ' There is a common feeling that the town meeting is a small affair compared with the Swiss landsgemeinde. It has not the sovereign power, but it is not by any means always smaller.
