Legitimation strategies and national parliaments. The case of anti-Corruption

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

A key question in the politics of legitimation is how to embed key standards of good governance against backsliding and how to avoid ‘social traps’ or collective action problems where individual actors find it hard to secure some standard for the rightful exercise of political power until they can be sure others will reciprocate. This chapter investigates those challenges through the stubbornly difficult problem of how to develop effective anti-corruption strategies. Using the case studies of a member state that joined recently (Croatia) and of a candidate member (North Macedonia) the chapter demonstrates that national parliaments are indispensable in developing normative standards of anti-corruption and overseeing anti-corruption policies. Yet it is not only national political systems that risk delegitimation where national parliaments do not contribute to anti-corruption. The EU is exposed to the same risk given its dependence on national political systems for the implementation of its own laws. Hence national parliaments in both member states and accession states are further audiences with whom the Union needs to be legitimate: without some feeling that the Union is justified in requiring standards of anti-corruption, national parliaments are less likely to have those standards in mind in scrutinizing their own governments and their implementation of commitments to the Union
