Therefore, this gives the need to the formation of a public sphere or a space that is needed for the interaction and discussion among the people which would lead to the formation of the ideas along with the process in the hopes of the will formation as well as its use in the political processes of decision making (Longman, 2006). The fundamental position of the conventional concept of the state in the new world order, hence, determines its relative comparability which is a holistic fact in the place of solitary purposes (Held and McGrew, 2000: 11)
Furthermore, governance has turned into a hosting analogy determining non-traditional performers (non-condition performers for example NGOs and their local and international associations) that participate as portable agents extending and expanding policy understanding, which is far more advanced and sophisticated than the traditional, elitist, government activities. The interest in global (as well as the regional) governance is complicated and also the role of multilevel governance formations in major policy spheres, increased through the role and processes of both problem-specific and regional focused agencies, is continuing to grow among scholars (Higgott and Erman, 2008)
By doing this it seems that Frank has reverted to the categories that are built in the nature of the law and are derived from the experience that one has in the domestic law with regards to constitutional context. Robert Howse has put great emphasis on the fact that in an international law the legitimacy transgresses an enquiry into the underlying values is required as well as the formal principle of consent (Howse 2001: 600-604), which was termed by Joseph Weiler as the social legitimacy of the rules as a "broad, empirically determined, societal acceptance of the system" (Weiler 1999: 80-81; also see Castiglione, 2005)
Although the existing interpretations might differ from state to state but the basic fact remains the same that the parliamentary democracy laws are made as well as amended by the parliament and it also controls the implementation of the executive power of the government. The presence of a 'permissive consensus' (Katz 1999: 23; also see Aziz, 2004) was a reason why nobody really worried about the European construction's democratic standards for a very long time

"We can distinguish electoral accountability and non-electoral accountability." (Keohane and Nye, 2001: 283)

The factors are: input methods of inclusion, the impact of power, deliberate and accountable decision making, the dependency of international rule on the willingness of nations to agree without coercion, the results complimenting the liberal and social-democratic rules and morals. All of them frame the often very competitive yardsticks adjacent to which the WTO system's legitimacy will be judged (Longman, 2006)
In the Treaty on European Union (TEU) the article 10 has significant democratic statements -- whose power has greatly increased because of the new set of provision that support those statements. With the help of these new reforms the role of the National as well as the European Parliament has become stronger and they also provide the citizens with the initiatives for the purpose of growing democratic legitimization of the EU (Mayoral, 2011)
Although the National Ministers still play a significant role in decision making but since they don't have the veto power anymore they are often faced with decisions that they are totally against but still have to implement. Although it is really difficult to calculate the percentage of the legislation actually gave vote within the member states, but it is estimated that the number of the members of the parliament is around 70% (Miller 2000: 210)
One can judge the legitimacy of the multilateral trading system and international economic law by the way that the poorest member is treated in a system (Pogge 2005: 717; Longman, 2006). Often separate strands of the political theories are combined with the help of the policies (Moravcsik 2004)
1) The participatory democracy also known as the direct democracy is done by the establishment of the new participatory mechanisms such as; the new channels of information and communication with the civil society of Europe and the European citizens' initiative (Mayoral, 2011); 2) Representative democracy which is done by giving power to the institution with the highest democracy such as the European Parliament and the National and Regional Chambers control the level of participation regarding the EU acts. The influence of parliaments on European decision-making Overall the parliaments only played a marginal role in the European decision-making (Norton 1996: 27; also see Aziz, 2004)
¶ … European Union a state, or what else distinguishes it from other International Organizations The primary question concerning global organizations as a medium of global governance relates towards the quantity and excellence of this governance within an era where we now have an overdeveloped global economy as well as an under-developed global polity (Ougaard and Higgott, 2002)
Formalistic democracy and the result oriented aspects both are discussed and talked about in the scientific literature: a democratic strategy is an effective one (Gustavsson 1996: 104, 111; Andersen, Eliassen 1996: 9; also see Bicchi, 2006). Authors talk about the input and the output democracy in this regard, the output democracy means that the policy should be "beneficial" for as many people as possible, whereas, the input democracy means the as much voice as possible regarding the realization of policy should be heard (Peterson, Shackleton 2002: 356)

The effect of the distribution of justice is an important factor which informs the legitimacy of the international relations. One can judge the legitimacy of the multilateral trading system and international economic law by the way that the poorest member is treated in a system (Pogge 2005: 717; Longman, 2006)
Now-a-days it has been determined by most of the national as well as regional parliaments that the traditional power belonging to them has actually eroded. (Rideau 1996: 161, 169;; also see Aziz, 2004; Kassim 2000b: 257): a significant number of the European directives, with the help of the executive power were converted into the national laws as they were thankful to vote for the application of certain laws
The question of democratic legitimacy EU is definitely not a nation state; as everyone likes to remind and debate on it. It is "the first truly postmodern political form" (Ruggie 1993: 139-40; also see Aziz, 2006), "less than a federation, more than a regime" (Wallace 1983; also see Aziz, 2006) "sui generis," or an "unidentified political object" (Delors, cited in Schmitter 1996: 1 also see Aziz, 2006)
When it comes to the international relations theory the underlying theories on which the legitimacy of organizations like EU and WTO hugely depends upon are strongly influenced by the political philosophies of different traits as they are adapted and applied to the international relations (Elsig 2007). The distinction between the output and the input legitimacy has been established by the political scientists (Scharpf 1999, also see Verney, 2006; Keohane and Nye 2001: 282287)
