But this “problem” also hints at a more welcome reason why making progress on global governance will be slow sledding. Even in the EU – the heartland of law-based international government – the idea remains unpopular. The EU has suffered a series of humiliating defeats in referendums, when plans for “ever closer union” have been referred to the voters. In general, the Union has progressed fastest when far-reaching deals have been agreed by technocrats and politicians – and then pushed through without direct reference to the voters. International governance tends to be effective, only when it is anti-democratic

1. Cate ziare a publicat Tratatul de la Lisabona (pe scurt)?
http://europa.eu/lisbon_treaty/index_ro.htm

2. Cati din cei care au mers la urne au citit macar odata ce spune acest Tratat ? E bine ca publicul citeste (lunar) gogomaniile unor publicisti de genul lui Rachman (World Gov't, my ass is laughing off:) si a unor politicieni populisti. Rusine.

Toate ziarele (incl FT) sa publice Tratatul pe scurt, fiecare om sa-si creeze propia lui opinie. Sau nu?
