| Abstract: | The article examines the original conception that Monnet had of the ECSC's High Authority, to clarify the role to be played by the technocratic executive. It seeks to explain how and why the notion of the High Authority was adopted. It is necessary to highlight the choices made by Monnet in establishing the European integration process, before considering how well they serve today's needs. The article then considers the constraints faced by today's Commission in exercising the political leadership required by it. |
