Committee – Style Decision-Making Bodies in the First Pillar of the European Union

Piotr Tosiek



Abstract

The goal of the paper is presentation of a notion, classifi cation, tasks and functioning of committees acting in the fi rst pillar of the European Union as well as an alternative solution: agencies. Committees are infl uential but underestimated decision-making bodies. Being a part of broader networks, they are present in every phase of political cycle: policy shaping, political decision-making and political implementation. Their existence is explained by mainstreams of integration and democracy theories. In many cases they are real decision-makers while formal authors of decision can only confirm decisions made in committees.

Keywords:

European Union, European Community, committee, political decision-making, agency, intergovernmentalism, supranationalism, multilevel governance
