Los fondos europeossu gestión instrumental por los Estados miembros

Abstract

European funds are not only resources destined to finance European policies; their evolution has transformed them into powerful control and intervention tools. Increasingly, the regulations that regulate them have been limiting the autonomy of the Member States and have turned their Administrations into mere resource managers. This paper analyzes the impact of European regulations on structural and investment funds on national administrations. In particular, it is studied how the intensity and extension of the regulation calls into question the operation of the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, as well as the principle of institutional and procedural autonomy on which rests, in principle, the implementation of EU law.
