This book analyses the political legitimacy of the European Union,
taking democratic citizenship seriously. Developing a distinctive
normative theory of political association, it evaluates the project
of European integration in terms of democratic values. It argues
that the goods of democratic citizenship have been advanced by
European integration in many respects, including environmental
policy. In other respects, including social policy, democratic
citizenship is best advanced by keeping primary political authority
at the level of the nation-state. Weale develops these arguments
through an original interplay of political science and political
theory. The contents combine original normative political theory,
drawing on the concept of practical reason, with applications to
the fields of social policy, environmental policy, security policy
and enlargement. The book is primarily an original work of
political theory, but it will be of interest to all those concerned
about the future of the European Union. It is written in a style
that makes it accessible to students on advanced courses as well as
specialists. -- .
