With the crisis the debate over the "governance" of the European Union has resurfaced in various shapes and form: in particular the crisis has brought the deficit of European political and executive leadership to light, likewise the need to reform European "governance" so that "true European economic government" can be built. In this context this paper attempts to analyse the imbalances that typify European governance as it stands and to define the conditions that might foster the emergence of a capacity for action and decision making on a European level that is both effective and legitimate – in short true European executive power, the keystone to the transition from governance over to government.
