is there a democratic deficit in the eu
Democratic deficit in the European Union Opinions differ as to whether the EU has a democratic deficit[2] or how it should be remedied if it exists.[3][4] Pro-Europeans (i.e. those in favour of the EU) argue that the European Union should reform its institutions to make them more accountable, while Eurosceptics argue that the EU should reduce its powers and often campaign for withdrawal from the EU.
