Book Description
Subsidiarity in the European Union, as the guiding principle of decision-making "close to the people", is often motivated and discussed from a predominantly political perspective. In this book, experts draw the demarcation between national and European policies from an economic viewpoint. Insights from economic theory and empirical research are used both to analyse the assignment of policies between the EU and its member states and to identify appropriate levels of decision-making.

The Political Economy of European Integration
Author: Finn Laursen
Publisher: Martinus Nijhoff Publishers
ISBN: 9789041100863
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
The study of European integration produced much scholarly debate in the 1950s and '60s. The following two decades saw few works on European integration that included more elaborate discussions of theory and methodology; most studies in that period were fairly descriptive. In recent years there has been renewed theoretical interest in European integration. This book, however, is one of the first to discuss and apply various political-economy approaches explicitly to integration, including classical integration theory and modern public choice theories. Areas covered include common policies and decision making, as well as the external relations of the EU. The influence of the European Parliament, the concept of subsidiarity, trade policy, Economic and Monetary Union, reform of the Common Agricultural Policy, relations with EFTA and Eastern European countries, as well as enlargement, are all discussed. "Audience: " Of interest to both scholars and policy makers concerned with these issues.

Government, Governance and Welfare Reform
Author: Alberto Brugnoli
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1781009066
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
'Alberto Brugnoli and Alessandro Colombo have put together an important collection of essays on government and governance in Italy and Britain. This richly documented comparative study proposes to answer two key questions: how does the change from government to governance emerge, and what enables this transformation to survive and even to displace State-centric solutions to public policy issues? The book will be a milestone in highlighting the distinctive and original role of the principle of subsidiarity, in examining and assessing governance regimes, their philosophy and their organizational choices and in linking subsidiarity with the prospects of freedom, responsibility and self-governing societies in the modern world. I know of no other book that brings the principle of subsidiarity to the frontier of the most current research in social science.' – Filippo Sabetti, McGill University, Canada This unique and original book focuses on institutional changes, welfare reforms and transformations in both Britain and Italy over the last three decades. The book illustrates that although it was a widely held belief in both countries that the arena of social and economic governance would shift to the national level, to the surprise of many, a different trend has emerged. In otherwise very different national experiences, both Britain and Italy have seen the sub-national level of governance become crucial in redefining public services, and in designing, delivering, and monitoring key services. The expert contributors use a distinctive and original principle – subsidiarity – as a lens through which to examine and assess these governance regimes, their philosophies, and their organizational choices. Academics, researchers and students of social policy, public policy, public administration and regional studies will find this book to be a highly fascinating read. It will also provide a wealth of information for policymakers and think tanks.

Poverty and Subsidiarity in Europe
Author: Didier Fouarge
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 9781843766056
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 247
Book Description
"Using long-naming panel data from three distinctive EU welfare states (the Netherlands, Germany and Great Britain), as well as data from the European Community Household Panel, the author analyses the determinants of long-term poverty and the processes underlying poverty transitions. At the individual level, labour market participation and human capital turn out to be important determinants. However, even in the long run most redistribution results from social protection transfers. The book demonstrates that social protection, far from being just a financial burden to the economy, can be seen as a productive factor. The findings endorse active policies aimed at human capital formation as a way to meet Europe's future economic and social challenges.".

The EU Principle of Subsidiarity and Its Critique
Author: Antonio Estella de Noriega
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 9780199242429
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
The European Union principle of subsidiarity was introduced by the Maastricht Treaty and was the subject of a protocol in the Amsterdam Treaty. It was intended as a last-resort protection mechanism for member states in a minority on a particular issue in the Council of Ministers. In the first book devoted to the subject the author analyses these constitutional reforms and the reluctance of the ECJ to implement them, and argues that the principle will not be able to perform this protective role effectively.
