Los ninos y la democracia
“Children and Democracy” is a periodical article, available in Spanish, published by Marcia Gilbert de Babra in the “El Telegrafo” in Ecuador. The author agrees with the innovative idea of holding child elections but only as being complementary to other methods that a society must commit in respect of children’s rights. She questions and criticizes that anything durable will be achieved by holding these elections and if children would actually benefit from it.
