Geneva's political institutions

Geneva's political institutions

This handbook offers a complete and comprehensible overview of the political institutions in the canton of Geneva. The Grand Council (parliament), the Cantonal government, the judiciary, the councils and committees of Geneva's 45 municipalities, as well as those concerned with maintaining neighbourly relations with France, all strive to ensure that everything in this two-hundred- year-old canton runs smoothly.

This manual reveals the subject matter from a different angle, in a dear and simple style far from the solemnity the subject might imply. Mix & Remix' tongue-in-cheek illustrations complement the information, put it in perspective and make Geneva's political institutions a pleasure to read.

Showing interest in your canton, its history and how its institutions are run is a way of empowering you to become involved in its development and in the decisions that will shape its future.
