The Presidency of the European Commission under Jacques Delors

The Politics of Shared Leadership

von K. Endo

260 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This work is the first systematic study of the presidency of the European Commission. Drawing upon cases of attempted leadership by Jacques Delors, the Commission President from 1985-95, it examines the leadership capacity of the office-holder. This points to the inherently shared and contingent nature of Commission President's leadership in a Union where the leadership sources are widely dispersed. While this is essentially an empirical study, Endo addresses some of the theoretical implications of its findings and resulting issues.
