Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Politics - International
Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 1,7, Zeppelin University
Friedrichshafen, language: English, abstract: Certainly, at least
in Europe and the United States, democracy is taken for granted.
Not only is our political system democratic, our entire society is
democratically organized. Our current understanding of democracy
came about as a result of the emergence of the European
nation-state. The functioning of modern democracy is consistent
with the political system of the state. In the twentieth century
the transforming processes of globalization, including the
empowering of global institutions as well as technological
revolution, influenced the role and functioning of the modern
nation state. A new complexity and greater number of actors
appeared on the world stage and the term 'government' was
increasingly regarded as inappropriate in capturing political
reality. The differentiated governance approach is more likely to
be capable of dealing with complexity. But what are the effects on
democracy? This term paper argues that change from 'government' to
'governance' forces a change in the concept of democracy as well.
To prove this assumption the European Union is closely examined.
