Parliaments and the Economic Governance of the European Union

More about the book

Focusing on the role of national parliaments and parliamentary parties, this analysis examines their legislative, representative, and control functions during the reform of European economic governance. It specifically looks at domestic approvals of key anti-crisis measures like the EFSF, ESM, and the Fiscal Compact across Eurozone member states. The book aims to determine the extent to which these parliaments maintained their competencies in EU policy-making amid significant economic reforms.
