Placing it within a broader frame of the institutional development of European integration at the time, this chapter explores the EEA’s origins and founding principles. Besides showing how and why the EEA eventually took the shape it did, the chapter also looks at the EEA’s structural weaknesses and how, ultimately, a realisation of its institutional inadequacy paved the way for later EU enlargements.
