This contrasts with the clear lack of knowledge about development of the Federal Assembly inhibiting any deeper and more structured reflection of this key period, in which the current system of Czech and Slovak parliamentary democracy took shape. 2012-12-04T12:58:00+00:00 http://euparl.net/9353000/1/j9vvhskmycle0vf/vj55ivz7zsn2?ctx=vhsro2bgtkt1&s0e=vhdubxdwqrzw Euparl.net is pleased to announce that the Working Group on Parliaments in Transition, Institute of Contemporary History, has joined the network. 2012-12-04T12:35:00+00:00 http://euparl.net/9353000/1/j9vvhskmycle0vf/vj51mckpnvtn?ctx=vhsro2bgtkt1&s0e=vhdubxdwqrzw On the 8th and 9th of November 2012 the European Information and Research Network on Parliamentary History (EuParl.net) succesfully organised the international conference The Europe of Parliaments - Current Research in the Field of Parliamentary History.

The central question is whether the increase of regulations has helped or hindered the legitimacy of political systems, including modern democracies. While legitimacy is a contested concept, most contemporary accounts take that popular legitimacy, the idea that power should be justified in the eyes of the people, is an important topic. The role of regulation in achieving legitimate rule has been and will remain an important research question in many academic disciplines. We invite paper applications to one of the eight workshops. 2012-09-04T10:44:00+00:00
