ظهور و سقوط قانون اساسی اروپا (مطالعات مدرن در حقوق اروپا)

"The Draft European Constitution was arguably both an attempt to constitutionalise the Union, re-framing that project in the language of the state, and an attempt to stretch the boundaries of constitutionalism itself, re-imagining that concept to accommodate the sui generis European Union. The (partial) failure of this project is the subject of this collection of essays. The collection brings together leading EU constitutional scholars to consider, with the benefit of hindsight, the purportedly constitutional character of the proposed Constitutional Treaty, the reasons for its rejection by voters in France and the Netherlands, the ongoing implications of this episode for the European project, and the lessons it teaches us about what constitutionalism really means"--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Recollections from and Reflections on the Making and Failure of the European Constitution Index La jaquette indique : "The Draft European Constitution was arguably both an attempt to constitutionalism itself, re-imagining that concept to accomodate the sui generis European Union.

"The rejection of the Constitutional Treaty brought forward the momentum of ever more European integration to an abrupt halt. This collection brings together some of the leading EU constitutional scholars to comment, with the benefit of hindsight, on the significance of that rejection and how it impacted on post 2003 developments. It examines why the member states chose to reject the movement towards a federal state. It also asks why the Treaty which had support from European lawyers, failed to enthuse European citizens. This probing and rigorous account will provide answers to these often asked questions"-- Provided by publisher
