I have written a lot about the European Union and its democracy and its easy to get lost so I have made this page which is meant to be a start page/index.
- Subsidiarity and proportionality basically my comments, notes and links on the treaties and constitution of the EU, you can see where it started, but now includes a number of paper links on democracy in the EU including references to those who want to reverse the centralising tendencies.
- Digital market regulation in the EU includes the Democracy Shield and some brief comments on the Media Freedom Act, see also Democratic renewal in the EU focuses on the Democracy Shield and the DSA, with some comments on some of the Techo politics. (Possibly these should be merged.)
- Sailing the high seas reforming and enlarging the EU on the late 2023 attempts to agree or head off significant reform to the institutions and competencies, interesting because the two initiatives show the two approaches of increasing federalism and/or reverting to a two speed Europe.
Also possibly less central to understanding the EU
- An article called, Media and election interference covers the UK and EU, catalogues and comments on the laws I think needed to understand the challenges of the Democracy shield.
- How much has the EU changed since Jan 20?, unfinished, maybe I should put the UKICE material in this page.
