Kort beskrivelse
Kommunal- og moderniseringsdepartementet [Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation] will contribute to a well-functioning democracy characterised by trust, free and independent elections, high and wide election participation, representative publicly elected bodies and active citizen participation also between elections. The Ministry wants to developed a condition analysis of the Norwegian Democracy, in the form of a democratic-barometer, developed for a high quality democracy such as Norway. The condition analysis will also be able to be used as a basis for policy development. It should be so nuanced that it can give a good indication of which of the Norwegian democracy qualities are good, and what qualities are weaker.
