| Summary: |
¿What is the state of European democracy? This question that opens this paper tries
to analyze the current state of democracy in the European Union and, as a last request,
to participate in the development of a European constitutional culture. For
this reason, it focuses on three juridical contributions to the theory of democracy:
1) the relationship between dignity and democracy and the consequent recognition
of the fundamental character of political rights; 2) the identification and defense of
a lowest common denominator of good democratic European customs and 3) the foundations
that support or have to support the wish to build a more democratic Europe.
This essay concludes with the analysis of three practical questions of democracy concerning
the Public Law of the European Union: 1) the proposals of reform of the
electoral systems of the European Union; 2) the defense and promotion of direct democracy
in the Union and, finally, 3) the defense of the European Union�s force to
integrate. |
