    ABSTRACT: How can non-state actors contribute to the effectiveness and democratic legitimacy of global governance? The article focuses on different approaches of democratic theory and explores which possibilities they ascribe to non-state actors for improving democratic legitimacy of global governance. In addition, the article explores whether and how non-state actors can improve different dimensions of the effectiveness of global governance, e.g., problem-solving, goal-attainment or compliance. The empirical findings demonstrate that non-state actors can partially improve the effectiveness and democratic legitimacy of global governance. But inclusion of these actors also creates new legitimacy problems.
