Europe’s voting space and the problem of second-order elections: A transnational proposal
TL;DR: The authors argue that such a move would reduce the second-order problem in European elections, as it would force political parties to move away from campaigning solely on national issues and improve the extent to which Europeans are represented in their parliament and would be particularly welcomed by citizens currently dissatisfied with the state of their national democracy.
