Resumen

En el presente estudio, se intenta delinear el concepto de europeización como un proceso en curso y significativo que afecta de manera diversa la implementación de diferentes políticas públicas específicas. En este contexto, el proceso de europeización, según este estudio, constituye un factor muy importante que influyó en la creación y difusión de autoridades independientes en Grecia. Estas autoridades específicas dentro del marco institucional griego pueden categorizarse de diversas maneras. La primera se refiere a aquellas que están constitucionalmente garantizadas como autoridades independientes, tras la revisión constitucional de 2001, y el resto. Otros métodos de categorización pueden basarse en su función, es decir, si operan en el contexto de la regulación del mercado o en el de la protección de derechos, o según sus competencias. En cualquier caso, a través de este estudio, se pretende analizar el desarrollo histórico de la creación de autoridades independientes que existen actualmente en el estado griego e investigar en qué medida el legislador busca—al menos a nivel de justificación—la adopción de prácticas europeas de acuerdo con los documentos de política oficiales. Los hallazgos indican que el legislador se refiere particularmente de manera frecuente y extensa a la convergencia, a las buenas prácticas de otros estados miembros de la UE, y a las directivas europeas pertinentes al establecer autoridades independientes en Grecia, lo que demuestra la importancia de la europeización en este campo de políticas.
