The democracy debate in the U concentrates on two parameters: the political community -the demos - and the institutional setting that better accommodates it. A common political culture can be crafted on principles of justice and good governance. It need not, and cannot, replace the cultural homogeneity of national communities.

Further increasing the EP powers will exacerbate the legitimacy deficit of the Union. The itself is not legitimate. Democratic legitimacy and efficiency in Council deliberations should not be treated as a zero-sum game, but as mutually complementing parameters of good governance. Voting configurations in the Council should be fair, according to the principle of institutional parity.
