Una view che personalmente condivido sull'argomento:
Greek referendum offer is more con than democracy 
 
By Marc Champion
 The Greek parliament has approved a referendum to decide whether to  accept the latest bailout terms offered by the country’s creditors. It  will come too late and ask the wrong question.
This is a vote that  Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras should have called at least a month ago  -- if it were an honest effort to let the Greek people make a democratic  choice on where their future lies, which it is not. As it is, the July 5  referendum will be so rushed as to be flawed in principle, and will  come after the current bailout program expires. Indeed, it may come  after Greece has already suffered a banking collapse.
The  referendum is not, as Tsipras repeatedly claimed during his  announcement, an expression of democracy in response to the  “authoritarianism” of the creditors. His argument that the creditors  must bend to the will of his election mandate has been preposterous from  the start: In which debtor nation would voters not elect to have easier  credit terms? And in what case has the International Monetary Fund or  any creditor been answerable to the electorate of its client nation?
I’ve  argued for Greece to hold a vote to clarify what its people want. It  was necessary because Syriza lied during the campaign to get its  representatives elected in January, by offering to end the bailout  terms, keep the bailout and stay in the euro -- an option that, rightly  or wrongly, was never available. Rather than produce a clearer mandate,  though, this proposed referendum would continue Syriza’s subterfuge.
According  to a draft cabinet proposal, the question on which Greeks would be  asked to vote in just seven days’ time would be whether they want to  accept the latest offer from the country’s creditors. This is a complex  document that has yet to be translated into Greek and may well be void  by Wednesday. It is clear from the language Tsipras used in describing  that offer -- “blackmail,” “humiliation,” “ultimatum” -- which way he  wants the vote to go.
Again, just as during the election campaign,  Syriza officials are not mentioning what all this would mean for  Greece’s place in the euro. They are maintaining the fiction that the  question of accepting the bailout terms is quite separate from whether  Greece defaults on its debt payments, sees its financial sector collapse  and is forced to issue its own currency in one guise or another.
Not  once in his address on the referendum did Tsipras mention the common  currency. When the Associated Press asked Syriza cabinet minister  Panagiotis Lafazanis whether the nirvana of reconstruction and progress  he described as following from a “no” vote to the bailout would involve  leaving the euro, he said: “It is you [the media] who pose this  dilemma.”
This is populist dishonesty. It may be that by this  point Greece would be better off defaulting and returning to the drachma  (though I doubt it). And it may be that a majority of Greeks would make  the choice to go it alone, rather than continue a dysfunctional  relationship with the nation’s economic partners and creditors (although  opinion polls suggest not). But the proposed referendum doesn’t ask  those questions.
Tsipras and his party want this vote to  legitimize their decision to default and exit the euro, most likely  after that decision has already been made, without actually telling  Greeks that this is the choice they are making. It gives further weight  to my suspicion that Syriza’s erratic negotiating behavior for the last  five months has been driven by a preference for default and exiting the  euro they could not express, because the party had no mandate for it.
Greek  voters should be told the honest truth about what they would be  deciding on July 5, if the vote goes ahead at all after the likely chaos  of the next week: a return to the bailout terms within the euro, or a  default and a return to fiscal sovereignty outside it.
