The Application And Effects Of The European Commission White Paper On EU Governance In The EU Governance Framework

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This article scrutinises the effects of the Commission’s agenda for European
governance reforms set out in the White Paper on European Governance (WPG).
The White Paper was adopted in 2001 with the aim to establish more democratic
forms of governance at various levels, ranging from global to local, and as a
response to the often-proclaimed democratic deficit of the European Union (EU),
and the citizens increasingly distrust and indifference towards the EU. Another
aim is to focus on how possibilities for civil society inclusion have evolved since
2001.
