ERPT vol. 4 thematic
|
|
Europe has witnessed promising take-up of e-Voting and e-Campaigns, with UK’s first Internet intensive elections and the French Internet Debate on the EU Constitutional Treaty. e-Participation enhancing representative democracy and opening new possibilities for citizens and civil society for interactivity in the democratic processes, is emerging as the natural development of e-Administration to e-Democracy and a new challenge for tomorrow’s Europe.
|
|
The recently revised EU Lisbon Agenda to boost Europe’s competitiveness and innovation, central drivers to build a knowledge-based economy and improve quality of life of European citizens, and the new EU Constitutional Treaty which sets the political and democratic stage of tomorrow’s European polity, both emphasize the need for more democracy, transparency, trust and confidence in the decision-making and policy shaping processes.
