The curve

From 1952 to today

The line shows the total corpus: every EU legal act adopted since 1952, summed up to today. Each point on the curve is the running total of all acts adopted up to that date. Since the Treaty of Lisbon (2009), the slope has steepened noticeably.

Quarterly pulse

EU legal acts adopted per quarter

Each bar shows how many EU legal acts were newly adopted in that quarter. The bar height equals the slope of the curve above.

The structure

Where the mass is

Not every legal act is a regulation. CELEX distinguishes several sectors — from treaties to case law. The bulk is secondary law: regulations, directives, decisions.
