Abstract

Study of the European Union’s development into a constitutional political system, with legislative power founded on twofold democratic legitimacy. The EU is an open constituent process since the ECSC. The Maastricht Treaty, established legislative codecision. The powers conferred on it in the Lisbon Treaty are such that the EP can rightly be described as a co-legislator acting jointly with the Council in a three readings system on the initiative of the Commission. On balance, codecision has been positive in both quantitative and qualitative terms as well as with regard to the implementation and conditioning of the internal market and the protection of citizens’ rights. The question of the European legislators and the public sphere is key for codecision.
