The discussion about a constitution for the European Union and its
rejection by referendum in two of the EU founding member states has
once again spurred public and scholarly interest in the democratic
quality and potential of the European Union. Debating the
Democratic Legitimacy of the European Union brings together
distinguished thinkers from law, political science, sociology, and
political philosophy to explore the potential for democratically
legitimate governance in the European Union. Drawing on different
theoretical perspectives and strands from democratic theory, this
volume is the first of its kind to overcome the present state of
fragmentation in the debate about the conditions and possible
remedies for what is often called the "democratic deficit" of the
European Union. Among the pressing questions addressed by the
contributors are: What future is there for parliamentary democracy
in the European Union? Can we observe the evolution of a European
public sphere and civil society? Can participatory democracy or
deliberative democracy pave the road for a democratically
legitimate European Union? Conversations about democracy have
engaged the public in a new way since the beginning of the Iraq
war, and this volume is the best resource for students and readers
who are interested in democracy in the European Union.
