As an explanation for the creation of this article, it was created after some concerns about the "democratic deficit" article being dominated by the issue of the European Union. I created it therefore to relieve that article and also to give a more detailed account of the arguments related to the EU. This is one of the key debates in the literature on European integration and I felt it merited its own article. I am not an expert and this involves numerous theories some of which I know and some of which I don't, so I've done the best I can - hopefully this can have some more contributions in the future. blankfrackis 17:35, November 18, 2006
[edit] Tidying up
I tidied up the introduction to this article, this - "after the first energy transition from coal to gas in 1963 (Gasunie) as the world's root cause for globalization" is rather confusing and wasn't needed for a simple reference to the European Union. The last sentence was also very meandering and imprecise - "due to the overall complexity resulting in a fundamental lack of overview and direction of the democratic process being overshadowed by international institutional conduct and strategic behavior under market pressure". If anyone is unhappy with the edit then feel free to post something here.
