Transnational Self‐determination. Resetting Self‐Government in the Age of Interdependence

Author

  • Daniel Innerarity

Abstract

The world of Westphalia, in which the subjects of self‐government were well defined, is over. We are in a new constellation in which we seem to be governed by others, especially in Europe. This other‐determination is not a temporary situation but a democratic requirement when our decisions determine the future for other people. Is there any way to make just that which appears to be inevitable? Democratizing the side‐effects of our decisions requires the institutionalization of reciprocity. Democracy is not more possible in a single country – today less so than ever.
