Cooperation and Control in the European Union: the Case of the European Union as International Environmental Negotiator KU Leuven
This article examines the internal decision-making process in the European Union when the EU participates in international environmental negotiations.

Starting from principal–agent theory and based on empirical research on ...
The causal relation between the European Union's coherence and effectiveness in international institutions : the Union in the standard-setting procedure of the International Labour Organization Universiteit Gent

Unequal unions? A comparative decomposition of income inequality in the European Union and United States Universiteit Antwerpen
This study applies improved household income data to measure and decompose trends in pan-European income inequality from 2006 to 2014. To contrast the relative significance of economic homogeneity versus the efficacy of welfare state and labour market institutions in shaping income distributions, we compare the structure of inequality in the 28 Member States of the European Union (EU-28) to that of the 50 United States. This comparison stands in ...
