Abstract: This paper presents one of the most relevant common policies of the European Union: the Common Agricultural Policy. Although its relevance for the EU budget is declining, the CAP is still a part of high politics, as defined by Hoffmann, and it is supported by important European states, such as France. As well as the EU institutions, CAP may be subject to the intergovernmental-supranational debate. In this paper, this policy is analyzed according to one of the paradigms mentioned above, through an analysis of the emergence, development and reform of the CAP.
