Rethinking Democracy and the European Union

Herausgeber: Eriksen, Erik Oddvar; Fossum, John Erik

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

While the Lisbon treaty was meant to clarify the European Union's role and political identity, it remains a challenge for politicians and decision-makers to define. Rethinking Democracy and the European Union looks at both the concept of the EU as a political system, and analyses the meaning and status of democracy in Europe today.
