Beskrivning

International law has increasingly become a part of the EU legal order, and has thereby become 'Europeanised'. Consequently, its application and interpretation by EU Member States is no longer solely a matter for their own constitutional order, but is also governed by EU law. This book addresses the effects of European integration on the position of public international law in the European Union and its Member States, illuminating critical questions pertaining to this triangular relationship. Are we dealing with the emergence of a distinct European system of public international law? To what extent do Member States actually recognise the effect of this 'Europeanisation' of international law? What role does the European Court of Justice play with respect to the application and interpretation of 'Europeanised' international law within the Member States.

'In the sea of international law, is the European Union an island that is Europeanising the sea around it? If so, 'to what extent do EU Member States recognise the effect of their application and interpretation of 'Europeanised' international law?' 'What are the consequences of 'Europeanisation' for the unity and coherence of public international law?' These are the main questions addressed in this fine book following on from a conference organised in 2005 by Amsterdam University's Centre for International Law in collaboration with the universities of Leuven (Belgium), Ljubljana (Slovenia) and Pecs (the Czech Republic). ... A must-read book!' Bulletin Quotidien Europe '... offers a well balanced approach to the phenomenon of europeanisation of international law, pointing out the multitude of perspectives from which this phenomenon can be studied. By doing so, the book creates awareness for the huge impact europeanisation has on different actors and on different fields of law. Although the term 'europeanisation of international law' is frequently used these days, hardly any substantial research has been done so far and this book offers the reader a valuable insight into the complex problems behind the phenomenon of europeanisation of international law.'
