ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS ON THE RISE! TIME FOR A NEW BEGINNING TO ENHANCE THE ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION IN GREENING INITIATIVES
ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS ON THE RISE! TIME FOR A NEW BEGINNING TO ENHANCE THE ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION IN GREENING INITIATIVES

Summary/Abstract: The key concern of the present paper revolves around the idea that in many aspects effective environmental policy integration has proved to be very difficult to be applied in practice and it has largely remained at a rhetorical level. The authors develop this theme, placing at the core of the analysis the most visible and supranational institution, the executive-bureaucratic arm of the EU: the European Commission, whose role in protecting environmental values is seen also in terms of its new agenda, this time without a portfolio dedicated exclusively to the environment.
