Nonviolence has an established tradition in several disciplines,
including political theory, international relations and political
science. We explore the potential of nonviolence as analytical
and normative framework for the study of European integration
and European Union (EU) politics. At the outset, we introduce
the basics of nonviolence and define our approach to this
concept. We then apply it to three critical issues concerning the
nature of EU power, the democratic deficit and the narrative of
integration. We find that our framework re-defines the core
dimensions of the problems of power and democracy, assists in
imagining the EU in non state-morphic ways, and provides
innovative ways to put praxis at the roots of the integration
process and its narrative.
