European integration has turned the EU neither into a state, in which authority is fully centralized in Brussels, nor is the EU a classic international organization, in which member states remain fully sovereign. Instead, European integration is patchy. For some policies, decision-making authority still rests with the member states whereas, for others, policy-making authority was transferred to the EU. Why does the EU's authority vary across policies? Taking policies belonging to the EU's Area of Freedom, Security and Justice as a sample, Stefan Jagdhuber theorizes and empirically analyzes why integration proceeded on illegal immigration policy and judicial cooperation on civil law matters whereas it stagnated for legal immigration policy and judicial cooperation on criminal law matters. The findings show that uneven integration trajectories in the EU are likely when policy interdependence, supranational activism and domestic constraints differ across policies.

Cet article est consacré à la problématique de la différenciation verticale au sein de l'Union européenne. La plupart des publications sur l'intégration différenciée se sont concentrées sur l'analyse de la différenciation horizontale, c'est-à-dire le phénomène selon lequel la validité des règles de l'UE varie d'un État membre à l'autre. L'analyse de la différenciation verticale, à savoir pourquoi l'autorité de l'UE varie d'une politique publique à une autre politique, a jusqu'à présent été négligée. Prenant l'espace de liberté, de sécurité et de justice de l'UE comme cas d'étude, cet article cartographie et discute la dynamique de différenciation verticale et, par conséquent, les variations politiques jusqu'à présent inexplorées dans ce domaine d'action publique.
