Abstract
Although democracy has become an endlessly widespread
idea around the world in recent decades, is also verified in
specialized literature and opinion research that the democratic
regime is in crisis. This apparently paradoxical process stems
from the fact that the new democracies that emerged at the end
of the twentieth century are challenged by two important factors:
economic globalization and increasing social complexity. With
the decline of the nation- state brought by the restructuring of
capitalism at a global scale, political and legal mechanisms of
economic intervention, income distribution, national development
and protection of the citizens’ rights, undergo a radical
weakening. On the other hand, globalization intensifies and facilitates
population displacement and international migration.
