Every chapter presents valuable materials and reflections for further exploration on a comparative as well as a national basis.

• the emergence of judicial review of national legislation• the interpretation of old constitutional texts• complementary sources to old constitutional texts• the application of old constitutions in modern societies• the legitimacy of judicial review of legislation2 186 kr

This book deals with the role of national parliaments in the perspective of European Integration. It examines the relationship between national parliaments and the European Parliament.
In order to find a solution to the problem of the democratic deficit in the EU, Smith concludes that it is vital for European Integration to create an efficient decision making process which is best served by centralisation and majority voting. However, this runs counter to democratic legitimation, which is dependent on institutions at the national level.
The book is unique in that the description of national models for parliamentary influence is used as an example for a similar model at the European level. It is largely based on a conference which was held at the Faculty of Law, University of Oslo, Norway in June 1995.
