Beskrivning

For the time being, the political project of basing the European Union on a document entitled 'Constitution' has failed. The second, revised and enlarged edition of this volume retains its title nonetheless. Building on a scholarly rather than black-letter law account, it shows European constitutional law as it looks following the Treaty of Lisbon, with the EU's foundational treaties mandating the exercise of public authority, establishing a hierarchy of norms and legitimising legal acts, providing for citizenship, and granting fundamental rights. In this way the treaties shape the relations between legal orders, between public interest regulation and market economy, and between law and politics. The contributions demonstrate in detail how a constitutional approach furthers understanding of the core issues of EU law, how it offers theoretical and doctrinal insights, and how it adds critical perspective.From Reviews of the First Edition:"...should be mandatory reading for anyone who wants to get a holistic perspective of the academic debate on Europe's constitutional foundations...It is impossible to present the richness of thought contained in the 833 pages of the book in a short review."Common Market Law Review"an enduring scholarly work, which gives an English-speaking audience important, and overdue, access to the long-standing and forever-vigorous traditions of (European) constitutional law... unhesitatingly recommend[ed]."European Law Journal"...real scholarship in the profound sense of the word..."K Lenaerts, Professor of European Law, Leuven

Recensioner i media

Principles of European Constitutional Law provides an extensive and comprehensive study of European constitutional law examined from the perspective of constitutional scholarship. It consists of 21 original and incisive contributions from leading scholars on fundamental European constitutional law issues. These contributions, although often presenting controversial views, always emphasise both the achievements and the failings of the constitutional law of the European Union as it currently stands.…the book is highly erudite and written in an intellectually sophisticated language and therefore will be mainly appreciated by legal professionals and scholars rather than by an average undergraduate student.The width of views presented by its contributors makes the book an intriguing read and can be seen as enhancing its value.A particular feature of Principles of European Constitutional Law is that although it was prepared and published before the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon, it is still fully up to date. This is because all contributions, in their own way, refer, analyse and assess the matters under consideration in the light of not only the EC treaty and the failed Constitutional Treaty but also from the perspective of the Treaty of Lisbon.Overall, the second edition of Principles of European Constitutional Law represents the highest standard of scholarly sophistication in terms of its content, presentation and quality of legal arguments, provides in valuable insight into European constitutional law, and will certainly stimulate many debates on European constitutional law. This is certainly not a book to be missed by anyone interested in EU law in general and in European constitutional law in particular.
