(2014).
The Austrian experience shows that there is little risk and much to gain from giving 16-year-olds the vote.
Sadiq Khan recently called for the voting age to be lowered to 16 in the UK. Markus Wagner and Eva Zeglovits examine arguments for and against, arguing that it is a reform that carries few dangers and can motivate schools to reach out to and motivate young people.
