In search of acceptance: Legitimation deficits and resources of the European Union

Keynote and discussion with Dieter Grimm (Humboldt University Berlin, Yale Law School), Rupert Graf Strachwitz (Vice Chair, Deutsch-Britische Gesellschaft), and Helmut K. Anheier (President, Hertie School).

The debate about the legitimacy deficit of European institutions has reached a new high after the ‘Brexit’ decision of the United Kingdom in June 2016. While there is little doubt about the existence of the deficit, its reasons, and consequently the remedy to overcome it, are highly contested. In his talk, Professor Grimm will elaborate that one of the most serious but also least known reasons is the European Union’s tendency to over-constitutionalise. Our discussants will look at this and other roots of the problem and derive suggestions to improve the situation.

Keynote:
Dieter Grimm, Humboldt University Berlin, Yale Law School
Discussants:
Rupert Graf Strachwitz, Vice Chair, Deutsch-Britische Gesellschaft
Helmut K. Anheier, President, Hertie School of Governance
