摘要

参与法定人数的要求使公民投票中的不投票成为一种重要的投票行为。这篇文章试图解释在公投中不投票的原因，人们期望有很高的投票率，但实际上只有很少的人投票，例如2018年罗马尼亚的同性婚姻公投。我们的解释受到关于选举投票率的文献的启发，我们在这些文献中加上了公民投票的几个具体特征。我们从文献中提出了三组主要因素:获取资源、战略决策和活动问题。该分析依赖于2018年12月至2019年3月期间在罗马尼亚多个城市和农村地区对18岁及以上的个人进行的36次半结构化访谈。

Non-voting in the 2018 Romanian referendum: the importance of initiators, campaigning and issue saliency

ABSTRACT The requirement of a participation quorum for validity makes non-voting in referendums an important type of voting behaviour. This article seeks to explain non-voting in a referendum where the expectation was to have high turnout but where in reality only few voted, i.e. the 2018 referendum on the topic of same-sex marriage in Romania. Our explanations are inspired by the literature on turnout on elections to which we add several specific features of referendums. We propose three major sets of factors derived from the literature: access to resources, strategic decisions and campaign issues. The analysis relies on 36 semi-structured interviews with individuals aged 18 and above conducted in several urban and rural localities throughout Romania between December 2018 and March 2019.
