Deepening democracy through deliberation and participation in constitutional and legislative change
The Open Research Europe Collection is launched by the COST Action Constitution-making and deliberative democracy. Its main aim is to disseminate research and reflections elaborated by all the actors engaged to discuss and reflect on this democratic challenge, not only in terms of normative ideals but also and above all on the empirical challenges raised by this complex and multi-faceted democratic transformation. (Click here for more information and the collection´s website.)
This Collection is currently led by Dr Yanina Welp, and Prof Elena García-Guitián, Stefan Lütgenau.
