LIGHTNING TALK
EU institutions are in need of a democratic reform. Yet, there seems to be an institutional reform deadlock on multiple levels. This session examines how the functioning of several core aspects of the European project such as European political parties, the European Central Bank and the Commission and Parliament can be drastically improved in their legitimacy and functioning by (re)democratising them. The three speakers will offer a visionary outlook on concrete proposals of how the institutional deadlocks of the European Union can be mitigated by democratising them.
