Building forth upon recent developments in democracy theory that
have identified multiple forms of legitimacy, this volume observes
a EU-wide shift from output legitimacy to input and throughput
legitimacy. Top down policy making is increasingly meeting local
resistance. As a result, the importance for policy makers of
enhancing the democratic legitimacy of their policy plans has
increased.
In this volume, nine case studies are presented, seven case
studies of protected areas in different countries (Belgium,
Germany, Poland, Spain, Finland, France and the UK), and two case
studies of protected species (the geese in the Netherlands, and the
great Cormorant in Denmark and Italy). These case studies are
followed by extensive comments. The volume opens with an
introductory chapter on the problematic production of legitimacy in
current European nature policy. It concludes with a chapter that
situates the case studies within the wider EU environmental policy
and political context.
