Abstract

This economic policy forum is assigned to the reform requirements within the European Union along the enlargement of the EU concerning the eastern European countries. In his article, Fritz Franzmeyer identifies to European policy areas that are due to reform in the course of the enlargement concerning the Eastern European countries. First, institutional arrangements, especially voting procedures in the European Council as well as the organisation of the EU-Commission and the European Parliament have to be reformed. He argues that without a reform the European institutions nearly become unable to work properly. Second, the financial perspective of the EU is subject to scrutiny. Both CAP and structural funds will be unsustainable with 20 European Union members, given that the new members will be the poorest and, therefore, will become recipients of a large sum. As a consequence, Franzmeyer advocates reforms of CAP and structural policy that go beyond the small reform steps taken with the Agenda 2000.
