The discursive regime of European participative governance and the neoliberal ideology
Résumé
In 2001, after six years of preparatory work by academics and European Commission civil servants, a White Paper on European governance was published. In this document, participation plays a crucial role. A precise semantic analysis of corresponding European Commission publications enables to present a detailed characterisation of the discursive regime of European participative governance. This characterisation highlights the numerous convergences between the discourse of participative governance and the neoliberal ideology. This participative governance discourse may be understood as an attempt to both imagine and legitimate a political system aimed at governing European people in a historical phase of domination of the neoliberal ideology in Europe.
