Everson, Michelle and Vos, E. (2016) European agencies: what about the institutional balance? In: Lazowski, A. and Blockmans, S. (eds.) Research Handbook on EU Institutional Law. Research Handbooks in European Law. Edward Elgar Publishing, pp. 139-152. ISBN 9781782544739.
Abstract
Book synopsis: Research Handbook on EU Institutional Law offers a critical look into the European Union: its legal foundations, competences and institutions. It provides an analysis of the EU legal system, its application at the national level and the prevalent role of the Court of Justice. Throughout the course of the Handbook the expert contributors discuss whether the European Union is well equipped for the 21st century and the numerous crises it has to handle. They revisit the call for an EU reform made in the Laeken Conclusions in 2001 to verify if its objectives have been achieved by the Treaty of Lisbon and in daily practice of the EU institutions. The book also delves into the concept of a Europe of different speeds, which - according to some - is inevitable in the EU comprising 28 Member States. Overall, the assessment of the changes introduced by the Lisbon Treaty is positive, even if there are plenty of suggestions for further reforms to re-fit the EU for purpose.
