Abstract

Worldwide there are many debates on making decisions about the right age of voting, it should be 16 years old or 18 years old. Mainly, the debate is elaborated into the consequences of lowering the voting process, as some countries had implemented it (mainly in Europe and South America). The right to vote is one of the fundamental human rights, recognized since 1948 by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This article is focused on the age of voting, but there is an age for people to get actively in voting process, the age of 18 is the right age to vote or to be voted and elected. Some empirical research has been done on this paper to present some perceptions of the experiences of 16 years old people and any possible impact of this matter on civil discourse. There are many arguments and counter-arguments to this approach, which lead to common models, as well as significant differences. For the reason of increasing the civic participation of young people, especially teenagers, lowering the voting age can increase youth representation in politics, giving in overall a positive impact in these terms. The article makes an attempt to understand differences and to decide what the best for the society itself, is especially by reflecting on its consequences, based on the Albanian case.
