Abstract
This dissertation deals with the impact of institutional reform on the democratic process.In particular, it examines the effects of the office of the Permanent President of the European Council on the democratic process in the EU's multilevel polity.The Office of the President of the European Council is the outcome of the reform of the European Treaties concluded at Lisbon in 2007.The Permanent President is a statesman appointed by the heads of states and governments who are the members of the European Council.The President's main tasks include the chairmanship of the European Council summits, the management of its work in between the summits, and representation of the European Council in the international sphere.The Permanent President replaced the rotating regime of the European Council chairmanship, which allowed each of its members to control the European Council agenda for a brief half-year stint.In terms of theoretical framework, this dissertation adopts three theories of democracy, republican, discursive and liberal.I apply these three theories to a conception of democratic government consisting of three elements: the government of the people, government by the people, and the government for the people.I focus on the government by the people and the government for the people.I conceptualize the government for the people as an interaction between efficiency and accountability and the government by the people as an interaction between deliberation and participation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
