“…Multi-level governance of this kind is the actual but also necessary form of governance and administration in the European Union. 1 Our view of this reality becomes blurred because we see the European Union as a kind of state, but also because we deny what has been the case since 1957, namely that the sovereignty of the Member States is limited because they have transferred legislative, executive and judicial competences to EU institutions. It is important to note that even when competences are transferred in this manner, the Member States exercise considerable influence on the drafting of legislation and the resolutions adopted within the Council of Ministers.…”

“…According to Olson (1965), 1 the more members there are in a group, the less likely that they will be able to spontaneously advance their common interests through collective action. This is true even where the group is unanimous about the public good and the method to be used to produce it.…”

“…That is, in brief, the meaning of a democratic and social legal state. 1 The societies of Europe are in urgent need of these public goods, which can no longer be provided by individual states acting on their own. However, there is considerable debate about the way in which European cooperation furnishes these public goods.…”

“…Since the early years of the common market, the Community legal order has focused on removing obstacles to the free movement of goods, persons, services and capital; in other words, on creating a single market. 1 Social protection remained in place in national legislation; harmonisation was sought where politically feasible, but 'Europeanisation' has remained limited in this domain. Free competition was promoted through a European-level anti-trust policy and by counteracting preferential treatment by national governments.…”

“…In addition, there are provisions in the Treaty that prohibit companies from obstructing competition in the internal market. Legislation, including directives and regulations, completes its legal architecture 1 and is meant to eliminate differences between national rules that might disrupt the internal market process and to set common standards for the 28 Member States.…”

The municipal gaze on the EU: European municipalism as ideology

Journal of Political Ideologies

The EC/EU has been an eminently nation-led project. However, running in parallel, the European municipalist movement, braiding relations among cities across Europe, has sought to build an influential political role for municipalities within the European polity. The study of European municipal cooperation has become a consolidated thread of research in European and Urban Studies. Nonetheless, contributions on the topic tend to focus on the pragmatic aspects of municipal collaborations, glossing over the ideological foundations of European Municipalism. Therefore, by challenging the dominant scholarly view, this article contends that European Municipalism may be considered as a 'thin-centred' ideology. To support this argument, the ideological structure of European Municipalism is unbundled by throwing light on its conceptual components. As a result, this article construes European Municipalism as a 'thin-centred' political ideology, which postulates universal city-to-city mutualism and proposes a European counterproject built on a polycentric and diffuse conception of power.
