Cosa ne pensi? Attualmente li sto ancora leggendo e tbh è orribile. Penso che in qualche modo abbia più svantaggi che vantaggi per noi:
● Adozione dinamica della legislazione: la Svizzera deve adottare le leggi dell’UE di recente educazione il più rapidamente possibile ● In caso di controversie, i tribunali arbitrali internazionali decidono ● Misure compensative: l’UE può imporre sanzioni in caso di non conformità
Quindi c’è anche il contributo di coesione di 350mio. CHF all’anno all’UE.
Penso principalmente a causa di questi punti, è una perdita di autonomia nazionale per la Svizzera. Soprattutto attraverso costi elevati senza molti diritti nell’UE (come i diritti di voto sulla nuova legislazione nell’UE). Va contro la (metà) diretta democrazia della Svizzera IMHO.

I share your worries, but I wonder about specifics. We already are influenced from the outside and it wasn’t always bad. Women suffrage is a direct result from an international treaty. European courts would force our government to do more for the environment, same with corporate international responsibility our neighbors are more advanced.
Sure, the EU is neoliberal, but we’re stuck with a conservative government that thinks we’re some kind of island instead of the dead center of Europe hosting tons of important international actors.
At this point I can’t say what’s better…

An article in English with a bit of background
The forced adoptation of EU laws and the endorsed sanctions upon failure to do so alone means it will fail, not even mentionioning all the rest.
The swiss tend to be somewhat fond of democracy and since that goes against the current EUs design I see little chance of such treaties succeeding for now.
Regarding ‘Compensatory measures’ in the case of non-compliance

I mean…that sounds better than what we have today where the EU can leverage anything and everything against us (remember the Horizon or the stock market equivalency farce?)
As for it going against the (half) direct democracy of Switzerland:
When we voted on bilateral agreements it was always: either adopt the changes or the whole thing comes crashing down (guillotine clause). Now it’s much more nuanced, which seems like big progress to me.
I believe this will be ripped apart when we vote on it. I think the main issues are around the “Dynamic adoption of legislation” as well as the unspecified 14 measurements about the wages.
Swiss voters aren’t willing to accept anything that could interfere with their political rights. Wage dumping could become an issue (already is in certain parts of the country).
I don’t know what would be a proper solution, we need the EU, they need us (before anybody comes in here crying they don’t: North / South route, our participation in various projects and such).
Additionally a huge problem on this will be our participation during votes. Around 60% of those having the right do not vote.
