Project Directors Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Hermann Schmitt Project Staff Prof. Dr. Andrea Römmele EU-funded 1998 – 2002

Research question/goal:

This research network is to explore the functioning of representative democracy in the European Union. It is the research objective to secure a major advance in the understanding of the existing electoral processes within the EU. In doing so it substantially extens the scope of comparative research in European political science and sociology and help develop an integrated European research base in the study of political behaviour and institutions.
