  2. To clarify under what conditions civic participation would/could be a central component of the future of European polity. To gain conceptual and empirical insight in forms, mechanisms and practices of civic participation in the broader domain of ‘politics of life’ To develop new theory on the basis of the empirical research in regard to governance as deliberative practice in civil society, and the roles and relations of expertise, formal authority and citizenry in such a practice in multi-level contexts. OBJECTIVES

  3. What institutional reactions can we discern to the challenges of the newly developing “politics of life”? Which new institutional practices were created and encouraged to deal with the new policy challenges? What is the status and the meaning of civic participation within these new institutional practices? Do these new practices provide an increase in democratic legitimacy and/or effective problem solving? How do new experimental designs deal with the key issues of uncertainty, risk, value conflicts, and individual and collective responsibility? To what extent produce newly introduced participatory practices systems of institutional learning and generation of trust? Are they capable of involving excluded vulnerable social groups? What are the potentials, problems, and limits of participatory approaches in the context of European multi-level governance? CORE QUESTIONS
