| Zusammenfassung: | Abstract: The article analyzes new modes of governance in Europe. Firstly, different types of new governance, the open coordination method and voluntary accords, and their individual elements are identified. The theoretical discussion about them points out the reasons of their emergence, their mode of operation and the links to the 'classical' forms of decision-making. Secondly the simple question of the relative importance of new modes of governance in European policy-making is raised. Lookingat the policy measures from the beginning of 2000 until July 2001, the analysis found that only a minority of measures can be considered new modes of governance, defined in the above terms. A third question raised concerns political institutional capacity . Finally the question or instrumental capacity or effectiveness is raised.; |
