Committee – Style Decision-Making Bodies in the First Pillar of the European Union

Abstracts

EN

The goal of the paper is presentation of a notion, classifi cation, tasks and functioning of committees acting in the fi rst pillar of the European Union as well as an alternative solution: agencies. Committees are infl uential but underestimated decision-making bodies. Being a part of broader networks, they are present in every phase of political cycle: policy shaping, political decision-making and political implementation. Their existence is explained by mainstreams of integration and democracy theories. In many cases they are real decision-makers while formal authors of decision can only confirm decisions made in committees.

Celem artykułu jest prezentacja pojęcia, klasyfikacji, zadań i funkcjonowania komitetów działających w pierwszym fi larze Unii Europejskiej, a także rozwiązania alternatywnego w postaci agencji. Komitety są wpływowymi, choć niedocenianymi, ośrodkami decyzyjnymi. Będąc częścią większych sieci, są obecne we wszystkich fazach cyklu politycznego: kształtowania polityki, decydowania politycznego i implementacji politycznej. Ich istnienie wyjaśniane jest przez główne nurty teorii integracji i demokracji. W wielu przypadkach są one rzeczywistymi decydentami, a rola formalnych autorów decyzji sprowadza się do zatwierdzania decyzji podjętych w komitetach.
