Against the backdrop of representative democracy in crises, the book unpacks the Treaty promise of citizens participating in the democratic life of the Union including its law and rule-making. Case studies, related to participation in EU law-making, are assessed to determine whether institutional practices adhere to or conflict with the identified legal obligations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book explores relevant judicial review and redress mechanisms which exist to give effect to the principle of participatory democracy, as well as recent relevant jurisprudence of the CJEU. Drawing on political theory and empirical methods, while centring the analysis on legal interpretation and methods, suggestions are offered to advance the realisation of the principle of participatory democracy. By consolidating and conceptualising the previously contested content of the Treaty's principle of participatory democracy and coupling this doctrinal clarity with an empirically informed blueprint for applying and enforcing the principle, the volume recasts participatory democracy as a concrete, justiciable norm of EU law.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eGloria Golmohammadi \u003c\/b\u003eis Postdoctoral Researcher at Stockholm University, Sweden.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17 September 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHart Publishing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781509995943\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e288\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51333860524172,"sku":"9781509995943","price":108.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_94f58874-e7c9-4f15-bef4-fd21120bf31e.jpg?v=1783617149","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781509995943","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
