    Abstract

    Although the Open Method of Coordination (OMC) – a policy tool aimed at fostering mutual policy learning between EU member states – adds an EU dimension to national policies, no competences are shifted to the EU level. In addition, the OMC promises to involve a broad range of actors, among which members of parliament. Scholars have studied the OMC employment and OMC social inclusion and showed that the OMC breaks this promise by affecting the national policy making process outside of the control of national parliaments. This paper investigates the involvement of two national parliaments across three under-researched OMCs, related with the knowledge-based society theme.
