The Erosion of Democratic Norms: A Legal and Economic Review

Abstract

This paper explores the topic of the erosion of democratic norms: a legal and economic review through a multidisciplinary lens combining legal, economic, and socio-political analysis. It examines contemporary debates, analyzes legislative developments, and investigates practical implications in real-world settings. The study draws upon both primary legal documents and secondary academic literature, offering a comprehensive review of the current state of affairs. Emphasis is placed on how institutional frameworks evolve in response to global pressures, and how domestic systems adapt to uphold justice, efficiency, and inclusiveness. Key findings highlight the dynamic interplay between national sovereignty and supranational regulations, revealing tensions and synergies that impact governance. The research concludes with targeted recommendations for legal reform, stakeholder engagement, and cross-border cooperation to address systemic inequities and bolster democratic governance. This analysis is relevant to academics, legal practitioners, and policymakers seeking insights into the nexus between law and political economy.
