The Future of Europe - Democracy, Legitimacy and Justice After the Euro Crisis (Hardcover)

The European Union seems to have rescued its single currency, but it has not yet put an end to the crisis. In this major new book, a group of fifteen international philosophers, economists, political scientists, sociologists and legal experts compare the various interpretations of the European crisis (economic, political, constitutional, social and cultural). They describe the challenges the EU faces in relation to legitimacy and democracy and address head on the uncertainty over the future of Europe. The book consider different possible scenarios: from the Union's dissolution, with or without the continuation of the integration process, to its reinforcement, through the building of a political Union addressing the challenges of legitimacy, democracy and justice. Such a strengthened Union could mark a new stage for democracy, not the democracy of ancient cities and modern states, but the one convenient to the complex entities, neither national nor supra-national, of which the European Union, despite the crisis, is still today the best example.
