Document Summary
Initiatives of european cooperation: the eu results from a transformation of earlier organizations such as the european coal and steel community, the european economic. Community and euratom; it s the outflow of a series of events that was initiated by the. The eu is based on the idea that the participating states would transfer part of their sovereign powers to new supranational organisations. Spillover: spillover means that the full realization of one thing requires the realization of some other thing. The development that led to the eu started with the ecsc; it was founded by six states: Germany, france, italy, the netherlands, belgium and luxembourg. Supranational aspect: the ecsc sometimes had to sacrifice the national interests of one. Member state on behalf of the general interest; participating states had transferred some of their national powers to the ecsc. Intergovernmental aspect: through the council the participating states could steer the ecsc to make it a tool for furthering their national interests.
