      Abstract

      What is the difference between a council and a commission, or an institution and an agency? What about the European Council, Council of Ministers and Council of Europe, and what do they do? What’s important and what’s not? Which actor or institution should we focus on when something happens? What degree of power does the European Union (EU) really have in political decisions, and in what areas? The EU has is often described as “sui generis”, an idiosyncratic political union, or an anomaly, which doesn’t do it any favours or help in our understanding of what it is.
