- More about The Parliamentary Roots of European Social Policy: Turning Talk into Power
The European Parliament (EP) was initially intended to be a consultative assembly, but it played a more influential role in shaping Community policy in the early years of the European Union than previously thought. This book explores the EP's institutional evolution through the lens of Community social policy, highlighting how MEPs promoted a European social dimension to present the Parliament as the representative of European citizens and convince them of the Communities' positive impact on their lives.

The European Parliament (EP) stands as a formidable force within the European Union, a role that was initially envisioned as merely consultative in nature. However, this compelling book reveals that the EP wielded a far greater influence on shaping Community policy during the early stages of integration than previously believed. By examining the EP's institutional evolution through the lens of Community social policy, a policy domain characterized by a strong ideological dimension, it becomes evident that the EP played a pivotal role in shaping the European Union's trajectory. Through their advocacy for a European social dimension, Members of the EP (MEPs) positioned the Parliament as the authentic voice of European citizens, effectively channeling their interests and aspirations. By emphasizing the EP's role as a provider of democratic legitimacy for Community politics, MEPs sought to convince European citizens of the potential for tangible and positive impacts on their daily lives. This book offers a valuable insight into the complex dynamics and evolving role of the European Parliament in shaping the European Union's development.
