Abstract

EU policies are set jointly by the European Commission, the European Parliament, and the Council. But which of these institutions has more power to determine final policy outcomes? Drawing on a new study, Philippe van Gruisen and Christophe Crombez show that even though the Commission has lost powers with subsequent Treaty changes, it remains a powerful player in EU policymaking.
