Explaining Decisions in the European Union by Arne Niemann
Merkel's EU Policy
This article tries to assess the likely trajectory of Angela Merkel's policies toward the EU in contrast to her predecessor's. With Germany taking the European Council Presidency in the first half of 2007, Merkel will have had a year to put her stamp on the Presidency. By contrast, Gerhard Schröder, who took office in October 1998 had only two months before the German Council Presidency of 1999 began. I argue that Schröder's years will be remembe…

The institution of ‘consensus’ in the European Union
Although many have studied European Union (EU) decision‐making in order to evaluate where the locus of power is, most studies have relied on the formal decision‐making rules in the first pillar to theorize the workings of the EU. This assumption is somewhat problematic given that the informal norms of consensus are the primary mode of decision‐making (81 per cent of decisions are made by consensus). This article examines the institution of consen…
The Structure of Regulatory Competition
The Structure of Regulatory Competition: Corporations and Public Policies in a Global Economy. By Dale D. Murphy. New York: Oxford University Press, 2004. 336p. $99.00. Dale Murphy addresses the study of globalization, specifically global regulatory competition, with the careful empirical work of a former banker and the analytical bite of a political science scholar. The result is a coherent theoretical statement about when, and under what condit…
Taking a second look at Germany's motivation to establish economic and monetary union
One of the most widespread explanations of Germany's willingness to create European monetary union is that business or economic interest groups supported and lobbied for it, believing it would be good for them. This article refutes the argument that economic interests were actively involved in the process or that they had a causal impact on the German government's acceptance of EMU. Empirical evidence shows that economic interest groups in German…
Cutting the Bank Down to Size
This article examines the problems enlargement poses for one specific supranational organization, the European Central Bank (ECB). The article synthesizes three different literatures, on enlargement, ECB transparency and legitimacy, and effective monetary policy‐making, which up until now have not been linked. The three issues are related, and ought to be considered together when policy choices regarding institution‐building are made, because the…
Supranational institution-building in the European Union
The completion of the new supranational ECB provides an opportunity to compare how the EU builds new institutions. On the face of it, the two institutions now have a similar status, however, the creation of the ECJ was very different than that of the ECB. This paper looks comparatively at the two institutions and asks how the workings of these institutions have been affected by the initial mandate. Concretely, we examine the path the ECJ has take…

The State of the European Union, Vol. 4
The struggle between those who seek a more integrated, and even a federal, Europe and those proposing a looser confederation was once again highlighted at the 1996-1997 Intergovernmental Conference, and reflected in the IGC’s decisions. This fourth volume in the European Community Studies Association's biennial series examines the divisions within the EU in the key areas of the common foreign and security policy, European monetary union, enlargem…
