of todays early years students/trainees and support them through
every stage of the early years research process. Research in the

Political authority in todayOs leading democracies rests on
generally shared perceptions by a given people that their
government is responsible to them and considers each individual
citizen equal under the law. Yet since the dawn of the industrial
age, democratic governments have presided over economies that
function on the basis of an unequal distribution of real resources.
As globalization opens these economies, the gap between legal,
ideal and economic reality widens and boundaries separating Othe
peopleO of different democracies erode. This thought-provoking book
explores the consequent challenge posed for the inherent legitimacy
of democratic systems. When distinctive bonds between political
power and social obligation break down, that erosion creates
Odemocratic deficits.O Pressures build to reconstitute political
authority beyond the state, and governance-in-practice grows ever
more distant from democracy-in-principle. Nowhere is the deepening
dilemma more evident than in the European Union. This book examines
the contemporary breakdown and transformation of the democratic
welfare state in Europe and draws fascinating contrasts with North
America. In a cohesive and insightful collection of essays, a group
of distinguished political scientists debates the implications of
these trends both for theory and for policy.
