    LSE ‘Europe in Question’ Discussion Paper Series Chronicle of an Election Foretold: The Longer-Term Trends leading to the ‘Spitzenkandidaten’ procedure and the Election of Jean-Claude Juncker as European Commission President Martin Westlake LEQS Paper No. 102/2016 January 2016 LEQS is generously supported by the LSE Annual Fund Editorial Board Dr Joan Costa-i-Font Dr Vassilis Monastiriotis Dr Jonathan White Dr Katjana Gattermann Dr Sonja Avlijas All views expressed in this paper are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the editors or the LSE. © Martin Westlake Chronicle of an Election Foretold: The Longer-Term Trends leading to the ‘Spitzenkandidaten’ procedure and the Election of Jean-Claude Juncker as European Commission President Martin Westlake* Abstract By focusing on the near-term campaign in the 2014 European elections analysts have tended to over-look a series of longer-term trends that were jointly and inexorably leading to the Spitzenkandidaten (lead candidate) process and to some at least of the subsequent structural reforms to the Commission. The paper argues that those longer-term trends continue and that the (s)election of Jean-Claude Juncker as President of the European Commission and the structural reforms he subsequently introduced are better understood as steps in ongoing processes rather than fresh departures. Thus, what will happen in 2019 will have been conditioned not only by 2014, but also by previous elections and previous developments, as considered in this paper.

Katja Seidel SUPRANATIONAL IDEALS AND PRAGMATIC CHOICES The High Authority of the European Coal and Steel Community, 1952–1955 The creation of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) triggered the supranational integration of Europe. For the first time, European nation states partly renounced national sovereignty by transferring responsibilities for the coal and steel sector, a restricted but vital part of these countries’ economies, to this new European organisation. The treaty establishing the ECSC was signed on 18 April 1951 by the governments of Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. The institutional framework of the ECSC laid down in the treaty, was based on four pillars: the European Court of Justice, the Common Assembly, the Special Council of Ministers and the High Authority. The High Authority had executive-type func- tions. Its main task, after its inception on 10 August 1952, was to set up and manage a common market for coal and steel in which neither of the industries or governments of member states would receive preferential treatment nor be discriminated against.

  • Trade Unions and European Construction
    A European “Model” Defined by public Policies Trade unions and European construction Sylvain SCHIRMANN ABSTRACT Reformist and Christian trade unionisms accompanied the construction of the European Community, as opposed to “Marxist” confederations which saw it as an instrument of oppression and war against the socialist camp. The gradual implementation of the European market subsequently raised problems for trade unions, and dialogue with European institutions was affected as a result. Yet at the same time, this Single Market promoted the rise of a reformist unionism based on expertise, to the detriment of a unionism based on confrontation. Demonstration of support for the Greek people, from Athenes to Paris, in all Europe. Source: Flickr With the exception of “communist” trade unions affiliated with the World Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU), on the whole reformist and Christian trade unions were generally favourable to the process of constructing the European Community. Within this context they had to adapt their strategies in view of promoting, through the process of European unification, the rights of their members, notably by demanding the harmonization of social legislation. During the first phase (until the mid-1960s), trade unions tried to influence European Community decisions through European institutions. They initially did so through entryism, as the two trade unionists Hans Pothoff and Paul Finet, for instance, were appointed as members of the High Authority of the ECSC. Trade unions also became involved with the technical management of this first community authority. For example, two departmental management positions were entrusted to “permanent trade union staff members,” including the important one for statistics.

  • Appointment of the Commission: Parliament's Role Before 1995
    Appointment of the Commission: Parliament's role before 1995 SUMMARY In September 2014, the Commissioners-designate for the Juncker Commission will be required to appear before the European Parliament’s committees as part of the procedure for the approval of the European Commission. This will be the fifth set of hearings to be held since 1995. But what about the Commissions prior to 1995? Did Parliament already have a role to play in the new Commission’s appointment in those days? With this briefing we provide a short account of the procedure used before 1995 and the long road which Parliament had to take to have its say in the appointment of the Commission. It has always been the tradition for each President of the Commission, when taking office, to deliver a general policy statement before Parliament. Until 1981, when Parliament approved the appointment of the Thorn Commission with its resolution of 12 February, the newly nominated President of the Commission gave a speech to Parliament in plenary. However, no vote of approval or of confidence was taken until 15 January 1985, when the first vote of confidence was passed in the first Delors Commission. Formal hearings of commissioners-designate were introduced as a result of the Maastricht Treaty. The first Commission to be subject to this new procedure was the Santer Commission in 1995. In this briefing: From Hallstein to Jenkins - statements before the EP Towards the vote of confidence - European Parliament resolutions Vote of confidence in the new Commission Vote of approval Main references EPRS Appointment of the Commission From Hallstein to Jenkins - statements before the European Parliament The Treaty of Rome (1958) did not contain provisions regarding the involvement of Parliament in the approval or nomination of the Commission.
