political backdoors

Last week, Turkish citizens voted to switch from an all-inclusive parliamentary regime where potentially 100 percent of the population can have a say in politics to a majoritarian presidential regime where 51 percent of the population can rule over the remaining 49 percent.

Guess what percentage of citizens voted in favour of such a transition? 51 percent!

Amazing, right? How can an all-inclusive regime contain a backdoor that allows 51 percent of the population to transform it into a majoritarian regime?

Now I am doubly amazed. How come nobody has exploited this backdoor for 94 years?
