Summary:Ordoliberalism was the socio-economic theory which guided economic developments in Germany and the establishment of its social market economy after the Second World War. There is some evidence that ordoliberal principles also influenced the formation of the European Economic Community (EEC). This study investigates how far ordoliberal notions informed the establishment and further development of the EEC. This especially concerns the creation of a legal-institutional framework for the EEC, at the center of which is competition law, and the low salience of social policy for the project of European integration.
