    Los procesos de toma de decisiones en la Unión Europea
    in Estudios internacionales : revista del Instituto de Estudios Internacionales de la Universidad de Chile , Vol. 44, No. 169 ,  2011 ,  55-78
    The European Union (UE) has combined decision making processes based on unanimity and on majority voting, mainly owing to the recognition that, depending on the context, they present valuable advantages as well as shortcomings. Thus, the EU has so far followed a rather pragmatic course. The future seems to lie along this same path, not favouring one decision- making process per se over the other, but combining unanimity and majority voting according to the needs and possibilities of the specific issue at hand.
