The European Parliament (EP) - a powerful actor in today's European
Union - was not intended to be more than a consultative assembly at
first. Yet this book shows that the EP was much more influential in
shaping Community policy in the early years of the integration
process than either the founding Treaties or most existing
scholarship would allow. It studies the EP's institutional
evolution through the lens of Community social policy, a policy
area with a particularly strong ideational dimension. By promoting
a European social dimension, Members of the EP (MEPs) presented the
Parliament as the true representative of European citizens by
channelling their interests and needs. MEPs thus emphasised the
EP's role as a provider of democratic legitimacy for Community
politics, whilst at the same time trying to convince European
citizens that the Communities could have a real and positive impact
on their everyday lives.
