Technocracy in the European Union

By Claudio M. Radaelli

One of the most common and strongest criticisms of the EU is that power is held by a select few who are unaccountable technocrats sitting in Brussels who are formulating policies without consultation, with the risk that the basic thrust of democracy is being ignored. Claudio M. Radaelli analyses the extent to which this is true and argues that, in reality, 'technocracy' is in today's European Union.
