The Referendum originated from the direct-democracy of Athens and the sovereignty theory of Rousseau which is belonged to the participation or the direct-democracy school. The Referendum stands for the general will and the public good are realized through the direct-democracy therefore there is the normative because of it existing. But this statement faced a great challenge which is ”the rational choice approach”-It means the Referendum are only tools of the social great benefit's sum or the solving political disputes. It is just a kind of procedural democracy because it doesn't have the normative by itself. Eventually, for this state, this Journal Papers are turning back in the The Social Contract and Discourses's central idea of Rousseau-the Autonomy-Beginning to expound and prove the basic value of the Referendum must base on normative-the highest revealing of the Autonomy.
