The European Union: Trends in theory and reform
Europe as a Synarchy: A Study in Organized Co-Sovereignty
»Vielmehr bietet [der Kommentar] auf höchstem Niveau eine substantielle Auseinandersetzung mit den Hintergründen, den Zusammenhängen, der Theorie und der Praxis des Grundgesetzes. Besseres lässt sich von einem Verfassungskommentar nicht sagen.“ Herbert Günther Staaatsanzeiger für das Land Hessen 2018 (50), 1494–1495
Europe's Republican Moment
The chief cause of success or the reverse in all matters is politeia ; for springing from this, as from a fountainhead, all designs and plans of action not only originate, but reach their consummation. Polybius - The Histories, c.150 BC Inspired by Pocock's Machiavellian Moment , 1 the title of this article is a phrase to be interpreted in two ways. On the one hand, it depicts a particular 'moment' in the evolution of the European Union (EU) as a…
Civic competence and the challenge to EU polity-building
This article argues for the institutionalization of European 'civic competence': the institutional capacity of European citizens qua social equals to be actively engaged in the governance of the EU. It claims that a novel approach is needed to bridge the institutional and sociopsychological aspects of the EU's democratic pathology through the construction of a multi-level civic space to enhance the governing capacity of European citizens, whilst …
Federalism and democracy reconsidered
European democracy, parliamentary decline and the ‘democratic deficit’ of the European Union
This article examines two different, yet interrelated, phenomena: parliamentary decline in western Europe and the 'democratic deficit' of the European Union (EU). It argues that the latter has helped to consolidate, and in certain areas, facilitate, the former. This is illustrated by two sets of empirical studies, covering first the European Community (and in particular the Common Agricultural Policy and Economic and Monetary Union) and then the …
Greece and the process of rethinking Maastricht: Towards a managerial type of reform
New Challenges to the Study of European Integration: Implications for Theory‐Building
The progressive fusion of federal principles, confederal structures and consociational processes in the EU of the 1990s has set in train a sense of renewed theoretical excitement among its students. This article aims to assess the dialectics of theory‐building in the larger polity, and reveal alternative ways of reconceptualizing its current political properties and functions. Focusing on the dynamic interplay between autonomous self‐rule and col…
Europe's could‐be demos: Recasting the debate
A great democratic revolution is taking place in our midst. ... Some think it a new thing and, supposing it an accident, hope that they can still check it; others think it irresistible, because it seems to them the most continuous, ancient, and permanent tendency known to history'.1 Thus wrote de Tocqueville in his much‐celebrated Democracy in America on the extension of democratic ideas across borders. This article is about a similar revolution …
European union and the dynamics of confederal consociation: Problems and prospects for a democratic future
Democracy and symbiosis in the European Union: Towards a confederal consociation
In attempting to assess the new political dynamics of European Union, this article introduces the concept of 'confederal consociation' as a key to understanding the changing nature of the relationship between democracy and integration in the 1990s. It suggests that the consociational dimension of the latter effectively weakens the infrastructure of transnational democracy since it favours a distinctive pattern of political interaction whereby exe…
