Democratizing the European Union Issues for the Twenty-first Century

The European Union's "democratic deficit," and ways that might be found to resolve it, are important issues in both academic debate and practical politics. This book offers a fresh approach to the subject by bringing together a diverse range of authors who have been actively involved either in analyzing the activities of the EU or in participating in them. It goes beyond a primarily institutional approach by highlighting the less obvious barriers to participation experienced by those campaigning for the rights of disadvantaged groups.Hoskyns, Catherine is the author of 'Democratizing the European Union Issues for the Twenty-first Century', published 2007 under ISBN 9781412805698 and ISBN 1412805694.
