/ EUDO Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies / EUDO EUDO Launch Conference, December Thursday, December What is EUDO? Rationale, Structure and Prospects Alexander H. Trechsel

/ EUDO Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies / EUDO EUDO Launch Conference, December Context Simultaneous widening & deepening of European integration -> call for legitimacy complements the desire for efficiency Permissive consensus? Citizens, National Parliaments and Constitutional Courts emancipate themselves Democratic deficit at European level is compensated by national-level democracy -> 2005 referendums on the Constitutional Treaty Post-referendum trauma in Europe -> elites at all levels are baffled

/ EUDO Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies / EUDO EUDO Launch Conference, December Context (II) Diagnoses of the problem -> wild debates on democracy However: uninformed and unqualified pseudo- analyses abound Result: institutional stasis -> poor attempts trying to overcome the problem Lisbon entered into force, but the main democratic problems remain

/ EUDO Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies / EUDO EUDO Launch Conference, December Rationale for EUDO Lack of systematic assessments of democracy in Europe Lack of diffusion of high quality research Lack of dialogue between academia and policy makers Consensus within the European University Institute: we can help improve this!

/ EUDO Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies / EUDO EUDO Launch Conference, December Birth of the European Union Democracy Observatory (EUDO) in 2006 Main idea: creation of an independent and interdisciplinary academic organisation dedicated to the topic of European democracy

/ EUDO Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies / EUDO EUDO Launch Conference, December Goals translate scientifc output into policy-relevant/publicly understandable output produce permanent and periodic assessment of democratic practices within the EU propose practical suggestions for improving democratic performance in the EU offer expertise, information and policy reports create a forum to exchange ideas and best practices -> In short: become a major resource for policy makers, academics and citizens on European democracy
