Law, Democracy and Solidarity in a Post-national Union: The unsettled political order of Europe
About this ebook
This book deals with four themes which make up the main sources of the ‘constitutional crisis’:
- The problem of the rule of law in a context of governance beyond the nation state
- The problem of the social deficit of the Union
- The problem of identity and collective memories
- The problem of institutionalizing post-national democracy.
These themes constitute the unfinished agenda of the European integration process. Law, Democracy and Solidarity in a Post-national Union is based on the efforts of a collection of top scholars in the fields of Law, Political Science, Sociology and Economics, and will appeal to students and scholars of political science, the European Union and European studies.
