Special attention is paid to the impact of these events on the different political forces as well as on the Unions institutional balance, its priorities and the reform of its budget and policies. Because of the many post-electoral uncertainties, the book also takes into account how the relations between the Parliament, the European Council and the new Commission have developed. Furthermore, it analyses the capacity of the von der Leyen Commission to implement an ambitious programme, especially in the context of an unfolding pandemic. The objective of this book is to study the 2019 electoral sequence (parliamentary elections, appointment of EU institutions leaders, investiture of the Commission, new legislative programme) and determine its influence on the main institutional and political challenges for the 2019-2024 legislature. In other words, the volume deals with the question of who holds the EUs leadership after the 2019 elections and how it handles the 2020-2021 pandemic. Olivier Costa is Director of European Political and Governance Studies at the College of Europe, Belgium, and Research Professor in Political Science and EU studies at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, CEVIPOF-Sciences Po, France. He is also Executive Editor of the Journal of European Integration. Steven Van Hecke is Assistant Professor in Comparative and EU Politics at the Public Governance Institute of the KU Leuven, Belgium, and Senior Research Fellow at the Leibniz-Institut fur Europaische Geschichte in Mainz, Germany. 001453353 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 16, 2022). 001453353 61020 $$aEuropean Union$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000123754495 001453353 61020 $$aEuropean Parliament$$xElections$$y2019. 001453353 647_7 $$aCOVID-19 Pandemic$$d(2020-)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst02024716 001453353 650_0 $$aCOVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-$$xInfluence. 001453353 651_0 $$aEuropean Union countries$$xPolitics and government$$y21st century. 001453353 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001453353 7001_ $$aCosta, Olivier,$$eeditor. 001453353 7001_ $$aVan Hecke, Steven,$$eeditor. 001453353 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031123379$$z9783031123375$$w(OCoLC)1332779637 001453353 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in European Union politics. 001453353 852__ $$bebk 001453353 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-12338-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001453353 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1453353$$pGLOBAL_SET 001453353 980__ $$aBIB 001453353 980__ $$aEBOOK 001453353 982__ $$aEbook 001453353 983__ $$aOnline 001453353 994__ $$a92$$bISE
