Book excerpt: With the increasing number of treaty reforms since the beginning of the 1990s, the appointment process of the President of the European Commission, as well as of the European Commissioners, has strongly been altered in the "written constitution" of the EU. Yet, before the various reforms had been introduced, the appointment of the Commission President in particular, and of political personnel in the European Union in general, has often been reproached as being untransparent. As this leaves the 'black box' of political decision-making difficult to access, scientific approaches to the choice of political leaders are mostly missing in the acquis academique - mechanisms of personnel selection are under-researched as they take place behind closed doors and can hardly be traced. Nevertheless, profiles matter in the political process. Characteristics, preferences, and interests of those in power shape political offices and set the agenda. The research in this dissertation contributes to the study of personnel selection. It does so by identifying general patterns surrounding the appointment of the Commission President. Dissertation.

Book Synopsis Political Leadership and the European Commission Presidency by : Henriette Müller
Download or read book Political Leadership and the European Commission Presidency written by Henriette Müller and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EU's pluralistic, nonhierarchical system of multilevel governance lacks clear structures of both government and opposition. According to the EU treaties, the presidency of the European Commission is thus not explicitly expected to exercise political leadership. However, the position cannot effectively be exercised without any demonstration of such leadership due to its many leadership functions. Examining this curious mix of strong political demands, weak institutional powers, and need for political leadership, this book systematically analyses the political leadership performance of the presidents of the European Commission throughout the process of European integration. The basic argument is that Commission presidents matter not only in the process of European integration, but that their impact varies according to how the different incumbents deal with the institutional structure and the situational circumstances, and thus their available strategic choices. The primary research question is thus, What makes political leadership in European governance successful and to what extent (and why) do Commission presidents differ in their leadership performance? In addressing this question, this book departs from existing research on EU leadership, which has to date often analysed either the EU's institutional structure and its potential for leadership or mainly focused on only the most recent incumbents in case study analyses. Focusing on the multiterm European Commission presidents Walter Hallstein, Jacques Delors, and Jos� Manuel Barroso, this book conceptualizes their political leadership as a performance, and thus systematically analyzes their agenda-setting, mediative-institutional, and public outreach performance over the entire course of their presidential terms.

This book was released on 2015-01-23 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European project has recently reached a critical point, where a discussion on the fundamental objectives of the European Union has entered public debate. There are considerable concerns about a new Euroscepticism arising in response to recent developments, especially the Eurozone crisis, and a general feeling of malaise towards the European project from both national elites and ordinary citizens of Member States. This paper looks at how Euroscepticism can be defined, the reasons behind its development in Western and Eastern Europe and the EPPÕs perspective on this phenomenon.Ê

Book Synopsis What's Wrong with the Europe Union and How to Fix It by : Simon Hix
Download or read book What's Wrong with the Europe Union and How to Fix It written by Simon Hix and published by Polity. This book was released on 2008-04-07 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union seems incapable of undertaking economic reforms and defining its place in the world. Public apathy towards the EU is also increasing, as citizens feel isolated from the institutions in Brussels and see no way to influence European level decisions. Taking a diagnosis and cure approach to the EU's difficulties, Simon Hix tackles these problems with distinct clarity and open-mindedness. What the EU needs, Hix contends, is more open political competition. This would promote policy innovation, foster coalitions across the institutions, provide incentives for the media to cover developments in Brussels, and enable citizens to identify who governs in the EU and to take sides in policy debates. The EU is ready for this new challenge. The institutional reforms since the 1980s have transformed the EU into a more competitive polity, and political battles and coalitions are developing inside and between the European Parliament, the Council, and the Commission. This emerging politics should be more central to the Brussels policy process, with clearer coalitions and identifiable winners and losers, at least in the short term. The risks are low because the EU has multiple checks-and-balances. Yet, the potential benefits are high, as more open politics could enable the EU to overcome policy gridlock, rebuild public support, and reduce the democratic deficit. This indispensable book will be of great interest to students of the European politics, scholars, policy makers and anyone concerned with the future of the European Union.

Book Synopsis The Presidency of the European Commission under Jacques Delors by : K. Endo
Download or read book The Presidency of the European Commission under Jacques Delors written by K. Endo and published by Springer. This book was released on 1999-01-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is the first systematic study of the presidency of the European Commission. Drawing upon cases of attempted leadership by Jacques Delors, the Commission President from 1985-95, it examines the leadership capacity of the office-holder. This points to the inherently shared and contingent nature of Commission President's leadership in a Union where the leadership sources are widely dispersed. While this is essentially an empirical study, Endo addresses some of the theoretical implications of its findings and resulting issues.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Social and Political Trust by : Eric M. Uslaner
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Social and Political Trust written by Eric M. Uslaner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the foundations of trust, and whether social and political trust have common roots. Contributions by noted scholars examine how we measure trust, the cultural and social psychological roots of trust, the foundations of political trust, and how trust concerns the law, the economy, elections, international relations, corruption, and cooperation, among myriad societal factors. The rich assortment of essays on these themes addresses questions such as: How does national identity shape trust, and how does trust form in developing countries and in new democracies? Are minority groups less trusting than the dominant group in a society? Do immigrants adapt to the trust levels of their host countries? Does group interaction build trust? Does the welfare state promote trust and, in turn, does trust lead to greater well-being and to better health outcomes? The Oxford Handbook of Social and Political Trust considers these and other questions of critical importance for current scholarly investigations of trust.
