Index. 330 $aBeetham and Lord provide concise and analytical coverage of a key topic within the European Union, that is, the legitimacy of European supra-national governance. 330 $bMost of the contemporary debates about the European Union - about its role, its institutional arrangements, its development dynamic, its expansion and possible futures - revolve around the issue of political legitimacy. Legitimacy and the European Union addresses the fundamental issues at the heart of the debates on Europe and examines such key questions as:- -What is the scope of the EU's authority -Is there a legitimacy deficit? If so, how much does it matter -Does political legitimacy only reside in the nation state? Using a multi-dimensional conception of political legitimacy, the text analyses the character and problems of the European Union's authority in respect of democracy, political identity and governmental performance. Its distinctive claim is that political legitimacy can now only be understood as a process of interaction between the state and EU levels, and that this interaction impacts differentially on different member states. 410 0$aPolitical dynamics of the EU series. 606 $aEuropean federation 606 $aLegitimacy of governments$zEurope 615 0$aEuropean federation. 615 0$aLegitimacy of governments 676 $a341.242/2 701 $aBanchoff$b Thomas F.$f1964-$01534505 701 $aSmith$b Mitchell P.$f1960-$01508673 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783047203321 996 $aLegitimacy and the European Union$93856477 997 $aUNINA
