Today s Europe is marked by an amazing pace of integration. The
European Union now consists of twenty five member states, however
there is confusion and disagreement about its future design. Making
The European Polity investigates how the European Union should
develop and organize itself and offers a reflexive approach to
integration based on the theory of communicative action. It
conceives of the EU as a law based supranational polity lacking the
identity of a people as well as the coercive means of a state and
argues that it is a polity with an organized capacity to act, but
no sole apex of authority. Making an important contribution to the
theoretical discussions on the EU, these contributors explore a
range of issues including legitimacy, post-national democracy and
integration and provide in-depth analyses of social and tax policy,
foreign policy, identity formation, the reform process and the
constitutional effects of enlargement. This book will appeal to all
political scientists and particularly to students and researchers
of European Politics.
