Formalization is the result of such struggles, and represents the creation of a legal and constitutional basis for a supranational European order.

The development of environmental policy, in contrast, can be seen as the result of pressure from the member states as a result of transnational physical and political forces compelling action above the national level.","Overall, the degree of policy autonomy enjoyed by the supranational institutions in each of the three domains varies tremendously, with CFSP being the least integrated, and EMU potentially the most.","Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:39:39Z (GMT).
