11. De la democratie en Europe: old concepts and new challenges

Author

Meny, Yves

Subjects

Abstract

Since David Marquand coined his famous phrase `democratic deficit' to describe the functioning of the European Community, the debate has raged about the extent and content of this deficit. However, little attention has been paid to the ambiguous nature of democracy both at the national and supranational levels. This paper argues that dissatisfaction with democracy has to do, at least for a substantial part, with the creeping expansion of constitutionalism and the parallel decline of popular impact on government. This phenomenon is often felt at the national plane and feeds outbursts of populism. But it is even more acute at the European level, which combines weak popular input with the most sophisticated and developed forms of constitutionalism. This imbalance should be redressed both at a national level as well as in the EU, as a nascent polity.

12. 'Fin de siecle' corruption: change, crisis and shifting values

Author

Meny, Yves

Subjects
Political corruption -- International aspects, Social sciences
Abstract

Although there is fairly general agreement that corruption is a major problem in most contemporary societies - democratic or otherwise - the consensus vanishes as soon as questions such as the definition of corruption, its causes and its extent are addressed. The article sets out the terms of the debate on these problems and examines the reasons for the explosion in corruption over the past decade and the new aspects of its internationalization. Lastly, the author points out that the sophistication of these new forms of corruption tends to render it invisible, thereby enabling it to escape both penal and political sanctions.

20. Le système politique français (6e édition)

Author

MENY, Yves

Abstract

La Ve République a franchi le cap des cinquante ans. Cette longévité relative témoigne de l'ancrage d'institutions pourtant décriées et critiquées par de multiples voix. C'est qu'en dépit de carences et de défauts souvent éclatants, la Ve République cumule deux qualités : elle combine et mêle des héritages politiques et constitutionnels divers, fruit de deux siècles d'expériences et de tâtonnements ; elle témoigne en outre d'une exceptionnelle flexibilité et capacité d'ajustement aux événements. C'est cette " constitution vivante " dont les mérites et les tares sont analysés de manière synthétique qui est présentée ici en tenant compte des innovations les plus récentes introduites par la révision du 23 juillet 2008.

21. An ‘Institutional’ Triangle with only Two Poles?

Author

MENY, Yves

Abstract

The ingredients which made the Common Market and then the European Union unique are still in place.

31. The national and international context of French policy communities

Author

Meny, Yves

Subjects
France -- Politics and government, Policy sciences -- Research, Public administration -- Management, Political science
Abstract

There are numerous, well-organized policy communities in France, based upon specialized corps of senior administrative officials in symbiosis with the environment they are responsible for regulating and managing. They also derive their strength from the integration of the groups concerned in the policy process, allowing them to compensate for the weakness of their organization and social base by the privileged access and legitimacy they acquire. Nevertheless, the traditional way in which the policy process is structured is modified by the territorial shift (both local and international) in the arenas in which public policies are made.

34. La costitutiva ambiguità del populismo

Author

MENY, Yves

Abstract

Populism is the exacerbated expression of the ambiguity of people's place within democratic institutions, particularly at times where the political systems do not function properly, and it is the indication of a democratic malaise that political actors and citizens would do well to take seriously. It is a valid and timely reminder that democracy is not a given, but is instead a permanently renewed construct.
