Taking as its starting point the major issues of democracy which
are the ongoing concerns of every liberal Western political system,
this volume offers a wide-ranging review of democracy in the
European Union. It treats the EU as a new type of political system
within the tradition of parliamentary democracies, a system which
is neither federal nor intergovernmental, and which consequently
has unique problems of how to handle democratic requirements. Part
One deals with the two major challenges of interest articulation in
the EU, political parties and lobbying. The second part discusses
how democracy becomes the key element in the linkage between the EU
and its member states, focusing on France, Italy and Belgium where
the relation to the EU constitutes an important part of the
national democratic debate. The third part focuses on democratic
aspects of key EU institutions - the European Council, the European
Commission and the European Parliament. The final part looks at
democracy in relation to possible EU development generally, and in
the context of societal change which may tend to undermine the role
of parliamentary institutions.
