The powers of the Union develops a new theory of centralization and bureaucratization in the European Union. Using original data spanning five decades and a variety of qualitative and quantitative methods, it analyses the distribution of powers to implement EU policies across supranational institutions and levels of governance. Franchino explains why and how much EU law constrains national governments, why European political leaders delegate powers to supranational bureaucrats and why they adopt laws that limit their own policy autonomy. He also investigates the European Parliament's impact on these decisions.

Abstract
The powers of the Union develops a new theory of centralization and bureaucratization in the European Union. Using original data spanning five decades and a variety of qualitative and quantitative methods, it analyses the distribution of powers to implement EU policies across supranational institutions and levels of governance. Franchino explains why and how much EU law constrains national governments, why European political leaders delegate powers to supranational bureaucrats and why they adopt laws that limit their own policy autonomy. He also investigates the European Parliament's impact on these decisions.
