The rapid proliferation of EU agencies represents one of the most
significant changes to the EU's organisational set-up in past
decades. At the same time, this development has significantly
affected regulatory policy-making in the EU. This volume assembles
the most renowned scholars in the field to address the key themes
and challenges that agency governance in the EU poses to effective
and legitimate policy-making. The first theme addresses the causes
and dynamics of the creation and design of regulatory bodies in EU
governance, focusing not only on EU agencies but also on
alternatives to the agency format, such as regulatory networks.
Second, once agencies are established, the book goes on to explore
the consequences and trajectories of agency governance. How
effective and autonomous are EU agencies? How does EU agency
governance transform existing patterns of executive governance in
the EU? Third, the book addresses the design of EU agencies as
independent, non-majoritarian institutions poses pressing questions
with a view to their legitimacy and accountability. The volume
appeals to scholars and practitioners interested in the development
and transformation of executive governance in the EU. This book was
published as a special issue of the Journal of European Public
Policy.
