Vetoes cannot be allowed, in practice, on every subject on which people care to exercise them.
One matter that may be discussed at the intergovernmental conference is the removal of national vetoes on tax matters.
Vetoes need not be the only way of directing attention to important issues.
By their nature, they require major institutional and legal changes and involve a much broader range of actors, which make them more vulnerable to vetoes, dilutions, delays and derailments.
A different kind of evidence also makes it seem very unlikely that kinship vetoes or other customs created serious rigidities in the market for topsoil rights (or other land-use rights).
Third, do gubernatorial vetoes or senate action offer an additional mechanism for rural and suburban forces to thwart the will of the cities?
Indirect control is exercised by means of vetoes by recalcitrant private sector factions.
Such a shared responsibility creates very different cooperative dynamics than in a situation where separate institutions endowed with their own institutional vetoes interact with each other.
