T1  - Zwischen Machtstreben und Toleranz : Verfassungsdiskurs in Polen
T1  - Between power and tolerance : the Polish debate aboutthe EU-Constitution
N2  - The Polish discourse about the European Constitution has one feature in common with the discourses of other member states: it deals with everything but the text of the Constitution Treaty itself. At its core it oscillates between the Polish striving for power in the EU and the toleration for cultural difference in Europe. The opposite of the latter has been particularly significant during the referendum debates in France and the Netherlands, which let to the rejection of the constitutional treaty.

T1  - The EU-plebiscite in France : wither the constitution?
N2  - The author discusses the failure of the EU-Constitution plebiscite in France and focuses on the different arguments brought forward in the French debate over the EU-Constitution. The draft of the Convent was a complex volume full of compromises. However, in comparison with the Treaty of Nice, it would have been a starting point for achieving a direct trans-national democracy. According to the author, the referendum only failed due to some unique plebiscite elements that were instrumentalised by governments which had overestimated themselves.

T1  - Bevölkerungsmeinung und Elitendiskurs : die deutsche und die französische Debatte über den europäischen Verfassungsvertrag
T1  - Public opinion and elites in the German and French debate on the European Constitutional Treaty
N2  - The authors argue that the public opinion and the discourse of political elites differ significantly within the Franco-German debate on the Constitutional Treaty of the EU. Moreover, the article shows that the discussion reflects different conceptions of European politics. These differences lead to the claim that the co-operation and the leading role of Germany and France in the EU have to be re-defined. This has to occur in the context of a politicisation of European politics, which is crucial for the future of the enlarged European Union.
