Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the publication of a new special issue of the *Journal of European Integration* on the topic "The European Green Deal and democracy".
Collectively, the articles in the special issue contribute a variety of new empirical, conceptual and theoretical insights on the crucial intersection between democratic governance and the European Green Deal. The different contributions in the special issue examine democratic elements in the EGD and surrounding governance structures by exploring alternative sources of democratic innovation, including deliberative mechanisms and social movements, as potential avenues for transformative change. The special issue in an output of the Jean Monnet network GreenDeal-NET: Governing the EU's Transition towards Climate Neutrality and Sustainability <https://www.greendealnet.eu/>. The special issue is available here <https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/geui20/47/2>. Several of the articles, including our editorial introduction, are available open access.
