This volume examines the interrelationship between democratic
legitimacy at the European level and the ongoing Eurozone crisis
that began in 2010. Europe's crisis of legitimacy stems from
'governing by rules and ruling by numbers' in the sovereign debt
crisis, which played havoc with the eurozone economy while fueling
political discontent. Using the lens of democratic theory, the book
assesses the legitimacy of EU governing activities first in terms
of their procedural quality ('throughput),' by charting EU actors'
different pathways to legitimacy, and then evaluates their policy
effectiveness ('output') and political responsiveness ('input'). In
addition to an engaging and distinctive analysis of Eurozone crisis
governance and its impact on democratic legitimacy, the book offers
a number of theoretical insights into the broader question of the
functioning of the EU and supranational governance more generally.
It concludes with proposals for how to remedy the EU's problems of
legitimacy, reinvigorate its national democracies, and rethink its
future.
