Exploring the EU's Legitimacy Crisis provides a profound analysis
of the causes and the consequences of the EU's growing legitimacy
problem. Since the onset of the eurozone crisis the EU's governance
has been narrowly driven by the semi-hegemonial leadership of
Germany - manifesting itself in functionalist and technocratic
policy reforms concentrated on strengthening economic governance
coordination. Other crucial policy areas have been neglected as
member states show decreasing solidarity and a growing emphasis on
national interests in response to mounting external challenges.
This book examines these developments in detail by scrutinising the
EU's ability to maintain legitimacy through political leadership,
democratic accountability and governance efficiency. This
state-of-the-art exploration of the EU's internal and external
challenges, including the eurozone and the migration crisis,
provides critical analysis of the EU's leadership in the context of
diverging national interests. The author outlines the essential
background to understanding the rise in euroscepticism in the EU
and provides an insightful analysis of the 2014 European Parliament
election Spitzenkandidaten system. A comprehensive critical
analysis of the latest developments in the EU's major policy areas
in terms of their problem-solving capacity and democratic
legitimacy is also included. This timely exploration of the reality
of the EU's governance in light of persistent crises will appeal to
students, academics and practitioners interested in the development
of the EU, its member states and European politics more generally.
