Summary

Die Evolution der Europäischen Union provoziert fundamentale Fragen nach der Zukunft der Demokratie. Der Sammelband trägt zu dieser Diskussion mit kritischen Bestandsaufnahmen und konstruktiven Vorschlägen von renommierten Experten bei, die sich mit der neuartigen Konfiguration „vielschichtiger Repräsentation“ auseinandersetzen. Schwerpunktthemen sind Repräsentation im europäischen parlamentarischen Mehrebenenfeld, europäische Rechtsprechung und die emergierende europäische Öffentlichkeit.
