| 释义 |
A referendum on restoring voluntary religious education to state schools was held in Estonia between 17 and 19 February 1923.[1] It was approved by 71.9% of voters with a turnout of 66.2%.[2] BackgroundOn 5 January 1921 the Christian Democratic Party (KDP) joined Konstantin Päts' Farmers' Assemblies-led the government, and was given the Education ministry portfolio. The following year the KDP caused a split in the government by introducing a bill to provide religious education in state schools, funded by the state. Although the proposal was rejected by the Riigikogu, the party forced a referendum on the issue in early 1923.[3] Results
AftermathAs the referendum was a rejection of government policy, this was considered to be a vote of no confidence on the rest of the government. The Riigikogu was subsequently dissolved and fresh elections called.[3] References1. ^Dieter Nohlen & Philip Stöver (2010) Elections in Europe: A data handbook, p574 {{ISBN|978-3-8329-5609-7}} {{Estonian elections}}{{Estonia-election-stub}}2. ^Nohlen & Stöver, p579 3. ^1 Vincent E McHale (1983) Political parties of Europe, Greenwood Press, p374 {{ISBN|0-313-23804-9}} 3 : Referendums in Estonia|1923 referendums|1923 in Estonia |
