INFORME DE MONITORIZACIÓN DEL REFERENDUM SOBRE LA CONSTITUCIÓN EUROPEA DEL 20 DE FEBRERO DEL 2005 (inglés)

The purpose of this document is to summarize the results of the follow-up made by the organization Mas Democracia (member of the democracy international (di) network) to monitor the referendum process that culminated in the Spanish vote on the European Constitution on 20th February, 2005. We have selected a set of international standards for fair and free referenda defined by well-respected academic institutions and used in the monitoring of previous referenda in Europe. This set of criteria will allow us to measure how fair and free was the referendum process for ratification of the EU Constitution, and to identify the weak points of the process. Those points will help us to identify the necessary reforms that should be made to ensure that future referendums held in Spain satisfy the commonly accepted international standards.
