Annotation: "Citzenship, Democracy and Justice in the New Europe" discusses the questions of political principle raised by the creation of the new Europe and the processes of European integration.
It examines what the framework might be for the nature and citizenship on a politically unified Europe. It discusses what framework of rights and obligations would link the members of culturally, linguistically and socially diverse European states to one another. It also considers what role ideas of social justice play in the shaping of institutions and policies and what are the relevant theories of justice.
The contributors show how the new Europe poses novel questions for normative political theory. They also demonstrate the importance of the contribution political theorists can make to the integration debates.

Publisher Description:
The contributors to this study address the question of how political theory is relevant to the construction of new Europe and the tie-in issues of citizenship, social justice and political legitimacy. By using techniques of contemporary political theory, the book argues that the emergence of new Europe poses fundamental questions of value and principle and challenges more established political theories in the process.
