    The European Trade Unions movement and the Common Agricultural Policy (1958-1972): a First Venture in a new Research Field
    in Journal of European Integration History , vol. 16, n. 2 ,  2010 ,  45-58
    The Free and Christian trade unions of the six founding members of the EEC had been one of the motors of European Integration from its beginnings. The Hallstein Commission entertained close relations to the European Federations of free and Christian trade unions, which had been created immediately after the founding of the EEC. In the field of agriculture Sicco Mansholt installed systematically contacts to the European landworkers federations. The plans of Sicco Mansholt's "Memorandum for a reform of the European agriculture" corresponded exactly to the ideas, which the 'European Federation of Trade Unions for Agriculture' had developed in the preceding years.
