They discuss the dilemma of how to protect civil liberties and individual freedoms in the light of external threats and assess the policies adopted by governments in this area. The book also addresses the question of how free, exactly, free markets should be in an economy in order to secure social peace, before going on to highlight the rudiments of the model of social market economy, as applied in Germany. It examines the problem of the democratic and legitimacy deficits that beset European integration and suggests reforms for a more democratic European Union. Last but not least, by looking back in history, they provide evidence and propose policies for the revitalization of institutions in present-day democracies. The book is of considerable interest to researchers and students in economics and political science, as well as to readers who wish to gain insights into the thorny social issues involved.DemocracyEconomic policyEconomicsEconomic historyEconomicsEuropean Economic Community literaturePublic policyDemocracyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911050Political Economy/Economic Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W46000History of Economic Thought/Methodologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W28000International Political Economyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140European Integrationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33010Public Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060Democracy.Economic policy.Economics.Economic history.Economics.European Economic Community literature.Public policy.Democracy.Political Economy/Economic Systems.History of Economic Thought/Methodology.International Political Economy.European Integration.Public Policy.321.8Bitros George Cedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKyriazis Nicholas Cedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910255285003321Democracy and an Open-Economy World Order2205587UNINA
