Unit Five EU Competences and Policies

STEP 1. OVERVIEW

In the previous units we have explored EU political system and its policy-making processes. In this last unit, you are going to learn what kind of policy outputs the EU can produce, its main competences and policy areas. To put it briefly: what kind of legislative acts come from EU policy making processes? In which policy sectors is the EU entitled to act?  At the end of the unit, you will be able to answer these questions and you will know EU main policies areas.
