Abstract

In this paper, an agency model is proposed, which allows us not only to compare a unitary state with a federation but also to represent the various forms of federalism. The concept of subsidiarity is used to explain how responsibilities are assigned between the different institutional levels. Then, the theoretical framework is used to investigate the present institutional status of the European union. We show that Europe still hesitates between a confederation and a federation, two types of subsidiarity (lateral or upwards) being respectively applied. Classification JEL : D72, H11, K10
