Abstract: Abstract Supranationalism has been a topic of analysis from various points of view when trying to understand the process of European integration. This chapter aims at presenting the major theories of supranationalism when discussing the ongoing process of European integration. Three main theories are examined: (1) normative versus decisional supranationalism, (2) theories of partial integration, and (3) legal theories of economic integration (such as the neo-liberal economic policy, the EU as a special-purpose association of functional integration, as well as the theory of the supranational and intergovernmental dual structure of the EU).
