This publication gathers contributions to understand better and further develop the European Citizens’ Initiative. This participatory and agenda-setting tool introduced into the Treaty of Lisbon has not yet reached its full potential of citizen engagement, nor has it driven the significant policy changes initially expected. Bearing this in mind, the project ECI: From A to Z aimed to promote the knowledge and use of the European Citizens’ Initiative within the higher education arena by engaging investigators and students from four different Universities (University of Coimbra; Georg-August University of Göttingen; Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iaşi and the University of Vigo) to work together to share their concerns and common views on the European Union role and policies. This publication describes the methodology followed and results reached under the project, but more than that, it is a practical toolkit for all who wish to know more about the European Citizens’ Initiative and how to put it in motion.

The European citizens' initiative enables one million EU citizens from at least seven EU countries to call on the European Commission to propose legislation on matters where the EU has competence to legislate. It is a right that is enshrined in the EU treaties. The rules and procedures governing the citizens' initiative are set out in an EU regulation adopted by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union in February 2011.

Drei Jahre nach der Einführung der Europäischen Bürgerinitiative (EBI) bietet der Band einen kritischen, wenngleich vorsichtig optimistischen Ausblick auf die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen dieses neuen Instruments transnationaler partizipativer Demokratie in der Europäischen Union. Der Band verbindet theoretische Diskussionen zum Wesen und Beitrag der EBI mit empirischen Perspektiven zu den Erfahrungen jener ersten Initiativen, die seit April 2012 auf den Weg gebracht wurden. Als partizipativ-demokratisches Instrument ist die EBI nur schwer einzuordnen, da sie lediglich eine indirekte Agenda-Setting-Funktion erfüllt. Ebenso konnte die EBI bisher nur ansatzweise den hohen Erwartungen gerecht werden, die von wissenschaftlicher Seite, aber auch von Aktivisten und EBI-Organisatoren in sie gesetzt wurden. Dementsprechend zwiespältig fällt auch das Fazit des Bandes aus: Während die EBI ohne Zweifel großes Demokratisierungspotential besitzt, deuten die Erfahrungen der ersten drei Jahre sehr stark auch auf großen Reformbedarf hin. Mit Beiträgen von: Jeannette Behringer, Carsten Berg, Katrin Böttger, Maximilian Conrad, Marie Dufrasne, Louis Bouza Garcia, Pawel Glogowski, Justin Greenwood, Annette Knaut, Julian Plottka, Yannick Polchow und Freyja Steingrímsdóttir.

With the European Citizens' Initiative (Article 11.4. in the new Lisbon Treaty of the European Union), the region enters new territory for modern democracy. For the first time, the principle of representative democracy, based on both indirect and direct democracy, will become a political practice on the transnational level. However, such a historic step, which is closely watched by observers from across the globe, raises many questions regarding the future provisions (implementation and regulation), the opportunities (the attitude by EU institutions and citizens groups alike), and the infrastructure (the support and assistance arrangements). This book offers an entry point into the new and exciting democratic territory of the European Citizens' Initiative, and it outlines the cornerstones and key features of both the procedure to be adapted by the EU in 2010 and the future use of the new tool from 2011.

Making the European Union more democratic and transparent is one of the priorities of the Juncker Commission. It is against this background that the European citizens' initiative is particularly important since it gives them the opportunity to express their concerns in a very concrete way and to influence the European political and legislative agenda. On 31 March 2015, the Commission published its first report on the implementation of this instrument. After only 3 years of existence, the facts show the interest of the general public for the citizens' initiative. In particular, about 6 million citizens have already made use of their new right, and three initiatives have managed to gather more than 1 million signatures. However, we are aware that some aspects can still be improved, and we have started a reflection on possible options for improving the tool and have the intention of involving all relevant stakeholders in this exercise.

In late 2009, Europe was given a new "constitution" with the Lisbon Treaty. Now, two years later, one of the key innovations of this new treaty, the European Citizens' Initiative, is about to become fully operational. For the very first time in world history, citizens across national borders will be able to determine the common political agenda by way of a transnational direct democratic procedure. Yet, after the agreement of the EU institutions just before Christmas 2010, a considerable amount of preparatory work still has to be done before the first European Citizens' Initiatives can be launched and registered. This collection consists of, among other things, the implementation of the new EU regulation into national law, as Member States will be responsible for electronic signature gathering systems in their territories and for the verification of signatures given by their citizens. Also, much instructional and informational work is about to begin in order to clearly communicate the options and limitations of the new participative procedure. Finally, a genuine pan-European and democratic infrastructure of support has to be established in order to insure that the new instrument is a tool for everyone. Making Europe ready for the next big thing, the Citizens' Initiative is clearly described and explained through the contributions found in this book.
