Abstract
- This paper explores a dilemma that arises from direct, popular consultations to approve or reject a peace agreement. The problem has two horns. On the one hand, it is necessary that a community affected by a peace process approves it for its legitimacy and viability. On the other hand, familiar democratic mechanisms seem inappropriate to discuss technical issues and questions of rights and principle such as those of a peace process. My main objective in this paper is to characterize the dilemma to clarify the complexity of this exceptional situation and the challenges it levies to our normative accounts of democracy. While I do not provide a definitive answer, I will try to make justice to the different moral intuitions represented by each of the dilemma's horns and make some progress towards its resolution.
