RED-SPINEL stands for 'Respond to Emerging Dissensus: SuPranational Instruments and Norms of European democracy'. It is an interdisciplinary and intersectoral Research and Innovation Action bringing together 11 partner organisations from 8 European countries. It will jointly analyse the changing nature of dissensus surrounding liberal democracy and its implications for EU supranational policy instruments. RED-SPINEL will unpack the inter-connected drivers of contemporary dissensus surrounding liberal democracy. Its findings will be rooted in theoretical innovation and original empirical analyses. Its concept-building effort centred on the notion of 'dissensus' will explore first, how contemporary dissensus surrounding liberal democracy differs from previous debates and second, the fundamental questions it raises about future democratic practices and the rule of law. Ultimately, RED-SPINEL will provide a typology of said dissensus, map the principal actors of the dissensus in Europe and unpack its two underlying drivers i.e., heightened internal contestation over liberal democracy and external competition from alternative illiberal models. Empirically, RED-SPINEL will focus on the key policy instruments and legal mechanisms shaping the EU's efforts in support of democracy and the rule of law. The studied instruments include the EU rule of law toolbox, the neighbourhood and accession instruments, the European semester, fundamental rights and judicial instruments, as well as citizen participation platforms. Furthermore, through a series of stakeholder events, RED-SPINEL will flesh out the implications of its findings for public policy stakeholders (i.e., legal professionals, policymakers, European youth) as well as EU instruments aimed at responding to said dissensus. The project will develop a range of scientifically informed policy recommendations and capacity-building efforts able to foster innovative democratic practices and respond to the present-day dissensus.

《回应新兴的分歧：欧洲民主的超国家工具和规范》（Respond to Emerging Dissensus：Supranational Instruments and Norms of European Democracy）这是一个跨学科和跨部门的研究和创新行动，汇集了来自8个欧洲国家的11个合作伙伴组织。它将共同分析围绕自由民主的纠纷不断变化的性质及其对欧盟超国家政策工具的影响。RED-SPINEL将解开围绕自由民主的当代纠纷的相互关联的驱动因素。其研究结果将植根于理论创新和原始的实证分析。其概念建设的努力集中在“纠纷”的概念将探讨第一，如何当代纠纷围绕自由民主不同于以往的辩论，第二，它提出了关于未来的民主实践和法治的基本问题。最终，RED-SPINEL将提供上述纠纷的类型学，绘制欧洲纠纷的主要参与者，并揭示其两个基本驱动因素，即，加强了对自由民主的内部谴责和来自其他非自由模式的外部竞争。从经验上讲，RED-SPINEL将侧重于塑造欧盟支持民主和法治努力的关键政策工具和法律的机制。所研究的文书包括欧盟法治工具箱、邻国和加入文书、欧洲学期、基本权利和司法文书以及公民参与平台。此外，通过一系列利益相关者活动，RED-SPINEL将充实其调查结果对公共政策利益相关者的影响（即，法律的专业人员、政策制定者、欧洲青年）以及旨在应对上述分歧的欧盟文书。该项目将制定一系列有科学依据的政策建议和能力建设努力，以促进创新的民主做法，应对当今的分歧。
