Resumo

After two elections to the European Parliament hold, in 2014 and 2019, once the Lisbon Treaty entered into force, in December 2009, it is time to make some progress on the examination of the role of the national parties, the Europarties and the political groups in the European Parliament regarding the shaping of preferences on EU issues and their translation into policy outputs at the supranational level of the political system of the EU through the Parliament. This piece of work shares data delivered by an exploratory study on Spain, which analysed 68 manifestos issued by parties and coalitions that achieved representation from 1987 to 2019 in the only EU institution that is directly elected by all citizens. The extent of these texts as well as the references contained within them to the Europarties, their candidates for President of the European Commission (Spitzenkadidaten) —from 2014 onwards— and the political groups in the European Parliament are examined. The preliminary study on Spain let us know this case concerning the abovementioned variables, make some observations on the European elections as a chain of delegation that is increasingly relevant due to the empowerment of the Parliament within the EU institutional setting, and formulate hypotheses for comparative research projects that embrace various Member States.
