Summary/Abstract: The cleavages at the EU level can be defined by means of two dimensions: the first dimension is the left-right conflict and the second is the national-supranational conflict. Between the left and the supranational dimension there are political actors who advocate the policy of regulated capitalism while along the right-national dimension there are the partisans of the neoliberal approach. While the first think that the strengthening of the EU institutions is justified (the supranational level) and they champion the legislation that emphasizes the socialdemocratic dimension, the neoliberals promote the deregulation of economic activities at the EU level and the strengthening of the roles of national governments.
