    Abstract

    The article uses the legislative history of some 5,000 Parliamentary amendments to analyze the role of the Commission, the Parliament, and the Council in the two main legislative procedures in the European Union: cooperation and codecision (I). These procedures have been the subject of theoretical controversies, because according to conventional wisdom codecision increases the powers of the European Parliament, but according to revisionist approaches, the conditional agenda setting powers accorded to the Parliament by cooperation are more important than the veto powers ascribed by codecision.
