The Subsidiarity Principle in Legal and Political Science Perspectives
No.4(2008)
Abstract
Keywords:
subsidiarity principle; policy analysis; policy cycle
The paper attempts to interpret the subsidiarity principle as an intervening variable of a policy cycle, one of the models commonly used in the context of a broad policy analysis approach. The text is based on a legal analysis of the subsidiarity principle. Methodologically, the model of a policy cycle facilitates the “transfer” of its results into the framework of European studies and forms a basis for further research of the subsidiarity principle and its role in particular legislative processes in the multilevel political system of the European Union.
