1 Global Democracy Democracy is increasingly seen as the only legitimate form of government, but few people would regard international relations as governed according to democratic principles. Can this lack of global democracy be justified? Which models of global politics should contemporary democrats endorse and which should they reject? What are the most promising pathways to global democratic change? To what extent does the extension of democracy from the national to the international level require a radical rethinking of what democratic institutions should be? This book answers these questions by providing a sustained dialogue between scholars of political theory, international law and empirical social science. By presenting a broad range of views by prominent scholars, it offers an in-depth analysis of one of the key challenges of our century: globalizing democracy and democratizing globalization. daniele archibugi is Research Director at the Italian National Research Council and Professor of Innovation, Governance and Public Policy at Birkbeck, University of London. mathias koenig-archibugi is Senior Lecturer in Global Politics in the Department of Government and the Department of International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science. raffaele marchetti is Assistant Professor in International Relations in the Faculty of Political Science and School of Government at LUISS Guido Carli University, Rome.
