The focus of REDIRECT is to study the current transformation of democratic polities in Europe, to realise whether and how their centres of gravity are shifting, and to improve our understanding of the “representative disconnect” – a multidimensional phenomenon of regression of the demos-kratos linkage involving institutional, behavioural and affective components. REDIRECT moves from the idea to study representative democracy in a comprehensive manner, connecting several relevant dimensions of analysis, in order to extract sustainable ideas and viable instruments to cope with the current problems of “democracy in flux”. These, in turn, will allow a parsimonious formulation of remedies, to be activated both at the institutional level (i.e. assuring a future to crucial “mediating bodies” of representatives democracy like parties, leaders, parliamentary institutions), and at the level of civil society. In parallel to a critical review of the theoretical reflection on representative democracy, an interdisciplinary and multi-level approach to several empirical dimensions of the phenomenon of representative disconnect will be offered, focusing on several topics: the crisis of representation, trust in institutions and political representatives, political personalization, political individualism, mass-élite congruence, social and social-media discontent. The long-term outcomes expected from the project mark the passage from the diagnosis to the strategies for rectification. Indeed, REDIRECT aims at providing a number of pragmatical recommendations to rearrange the demos-kratos relationship along a two way street intervention: the top-down way of institutional reforms (i.e., legislative and procedural innovation to ensure transparency and full information to citizens) and the bottom-up way of a stronger liaison between citizens and mediating bodies (i.e., remobilizing citizens via digitalization, diffusion of shared values such as social sustainability and civic education).

重定向的重点是研究欧洲民主政治的当前转型，以意识到他们的重力是否正在转移，并提高我们对“代表性脱节”的理解，这是一种多维互动现象，即涉及制度，行为，行为和情感成分的演示 - Kratos链接的多维现象。重定向从这个想法转变为以全面的方式来代表民主的研究，连接了几个相关的分析维度，以提取可持续的思想和可行的工具，以应对当前“民主中的民主”问题。反过来，这些将允许在机构层面上激活一种简约的补救措施（即，确保代表民主，领导人，领导人，议会机构等民主的“中介机构”的未来），以及在公民社会的一级。在对代表民主的理论反思的批判性综述中，将提供一种跨学科和多层次的方法，以实现代表性脱节现象的几个经验维度，重点关注多个主题：代表危机，代表性，机构和政治代表，政治代表，政治化，个性化，个性化的态度，社会，社会，社会和社交，社会，社交，社交，社交，社会化。该项目的长期结果标志着从诊断到纠正策略的通过。实际上，重定向旨在提供许多务实的建议，以重新安排两条街道干预的演示 - 克拉托人关系：自上而下的机构改革方式（即立法和程序创新，确保透明度和全部信息，以确保与公民的透明度和全部信息）以及对公民的越来越强大的态度进行跨国公司和更强大的态度，即通过跨国公司和跨性别的态度来跨性别的公民（即，对身体的跨性别范围（即，又一次地介绍了人体群体之间的跨性别范围）（即，均不同的公民。例如社会可持续性和公民教育）。
