A Possible World : Democratic Transformation of Global Institutions

"Patomaki and Teivainen describe a wide spectrum of democratic reform proposals. They also explore innovative ideas for new institutional arrangements - including empowering global civil society; a Global Truth Commission; referenda and a World Parliament; a debt arbitration mechanism; and global taxation. And they argue that democratic transformations at global level must involve not just democratizing institutional machinery, but revisiting the remits and powers they should have."--BOOK JACKET.
