Příspěvek Lisabonské smlouvy ke zmírnění demokratického deficitu v EU
[Lisbon Treaty as a Contribution for Attenuation of Democratic Deficit in the EU]

abstract
Lisbon Treaty as a Contribution for Attenuation of Democratic Deficit in the EU Lisbon Treaty brought up new competencies for the European Parliament as well as for national Parliaments of Member States. Such an approach is generally considered to be a decisive step for attenuation of democratic deficit in EU decisive procedures. European Union has been for a long time classified as a “deficit democracy” due to supremacy of executive decisions over parliamentary procedures. Nevertheless these phenomena have been indicated as a proof that the EU was not a “federal superstate” but an international organisation sui generis. The new theoretical analysis including case-law of the European Court of Justice as well as of the Czech Constitutional Court show that a European democratic equilibrium consiss also of the decision procedures of national Parliament. Not only European Union but also its “democratic deficit” is thus a unit sui generis.
