Abstract
It is argued that the EU is neither a nation state, market, international organisation nor a federal state, it is supranational institutions. On the other hand common currency, EU citizenship, states possession of territory and anthem which bring the EU closer to nation-states. The EU keeps on regular election of European parliament since 1979. The most important question of this study whether EU institutional structure and decision making process is democratic or The Lisbon treaty succeeded to make EU democratic. The aim of this paper is to examine the cause of democratic deficit in the EU and what measure have taken to determine the democratic deficit and evaluation of accountability and effectiveness after the Lisbon treaty. The study deals with critical prospective in terms of democratic deficit in the European Union institutions such as European parliament, The Council of European Union and Commission.
