Beskrivning
This book posits the possibility of a reasons-based account of the European integration process.The book pursues the force of public reason in getting to agreement beyond the nation state and spells out the fundamentals of the European integration process, theorizing the mechanisms that brought the European Union (EU) into existence. The book combines insights from social and political theory, law, and political science in setting out a novel theory of European integration and reconstructing the normative foundation of the EU. It goes on to establish the problem of arbitrary rule (dominance) created by political differentiation, examines the place of democracy in the multilevel constellation that makes up the EU, and proposes a set of democratic reforms.This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of EU studies, European integration, democracy, and international political theory/philosophy.

Recensioner i media

“This book demonstrates how political theory can help us comprehend and improve the European project. It is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of the old continent”.Jan Zielonka, University of Venice, Ca Foscari, Italy."In an unruly world, this book sets out a much-needed and compelling vision of how our democracies remain governed by reason and how reason adapts in the face of the major challenges of power, identity, and deep disagreement. As a critical case, Eriksen offers an alternative explanation of European integration – one that is not immune to setbacks but is in the end confident about its progressive vocation. This is a book that recognizes the major political challenges of our era but that also reinforces the confidence and the capacities of democracies to address them".Ben Crum, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Netherlands
