Abstract
In this article, the appointment of the European Commission is argued. First of all, we discuss about the appointment procedure in the treaties of the European Union. In the appointment process, we analyze political context in the appointment, especially the resignation of the Santer commission and the monetary integration. In the section about the president of the Commission, the conditions of the appointment are analyzed. For example, the vision of the european integration, and the political career of the cadidate. In the section about the Commissioners, conditions of the appointment, particularly condition of political partisan, are discussed. In addition, the political practice of the appointment and the impact of the governments of the member states are also important. Still, these governments are very influential in this appointment process. In the final section, the role of the European Parliament, especially the confirmation vote is stressed.
