EU policies development, creation and classification

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the creation and development of EU policies, the methods of their creation and classification. The specificity of the European Union as sui generis of a political system are its policies which imply the areas of cooperation and integration of the peoples of the Old Continent, but also the ways of realizing the ultimate goals of those different levels of connection in the European integration process. Economic policies were the priority of the European Communities up until the Treaty on European Union, which announced focusing on political goals of European integration and the pursuit of the Community to position itself as a global (political) leader. It resulted in making the priority of the common foreign and security policy, the enlargement policy and the new technology-related policies, in terms of information technology, and environmental protection for the European Union, as of the mid 90s of the last century. Up until today, a general criterion for the classification of EU policies has not been established. The Treaty of Lisbon has, for the first time in the European integration process, introduced a clearer review of the jurisdictions of the European Union and the member states in relation to EU policies.
