On 26 and 27 January 2007 the RECON project was launched. This is a large-scale project on European democracy, with a duration of five years. RECON seeks to clarify whether democracy is confined to the nation state or whether post-national democracy is possible under conditions of diversity and complex multilevel governance? This includes taking heed of the challenges to democracy at EU, national and regional/local levels. RECON spells out three different models for democratic reconstitution - national, federal and cosmopolitan, and assesses which approach to democratic reconstitution is most viable - in empirical and normative terms. |
