Europe of Democracies
Europe of Democracies
A concept of a European co-operation that is primarily organised bottom-up from the national parliaments rather than imposed by a single overall parliament (supra-nationally) from the top down.
Also a name for a democratic EU that has been developed by the Democracy-Forum group in the Convention the Future of Europe and is embodied in its alternative EU Vision.
The concept was also included in the name of the smallest group in the European Parliament, the EDD Group between 1999 to 2004.
