Vom demokratischen zum legitimen Regieren?

In: Politische Vierteljahresschrift: PVS : German political science quarterly, Band 52, Heft 2, S. 286-305

Abstract

The article contributes to the debate on the feasibility of transferring democratic norms and institutions to the global level. A critical evaluation of previous efforts to bridge the gap between democratic ideals and the political reality of post-national governance is followed by an argument to classify forms of global governance as legitimate according to the extent to which they meet measurable criteria in the dimensions of input-, throughput- and output-legitimacy.
