The Eurozone financial crisis and its political management are frequently described as a setback for democratic governance in the European Union (EU). However, is it possible that the increased focus on EU democratic governance resulting from the crisis, has also sparked a more politically engaged EU citizenry? If so, are the longer-term implications for EU-level democracy necessarily negative?
“Crisis Contained, Democracy Diminished? The Politics of the Eurozone Financial Crisis” is a one-day workshop being held on September 19, 2014. Further information and registration available here.
