Detailed chapters from academics, practitioners and stakeholders bring diverse perspectives on a range of factors Ð from access rules to institutional design and to substantive functions Ð influencing the European CourtÕs political role. Each of the contributing authors invites the reader to approach the debate on the role of the Court in terms of a constantly evolving set of interactions between the EU judiciary, the European and national political spheres, as well as a multitude of other actors vested in competing legitimacy claims.

Judicial Activism at the European Court of Justice will appeal to researchers and graduate students as well as to EU and national officials.

Book Synopsis Judicial Activism by : Luís Pereira Coutinho
Download or read book Judicial Activism written by Luís Pereira Coutinho and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-26 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers different perspectives on judicial practice in the European and American contexts, both arguably characterized in the last decades by the emergence of novel normative and even policy arguments by judges. The central question deserving the attention of the contributors concerns the degree in which judicial exercises in practical reasoning may amount to forms of judicial usurpation of the legislative function by courts. Since different views as to the nature and scope of legal reasoning lead to different degrees of tolerance regarding what should be admissible to courts, that same nature and scope is thoroughly debated. The main disciplinary approach is that of general jurisprudence, but the contributions take stock of other disciplines in which judicial activism has been addressed, namely positive theories of judicial behavior. Accordingly, the book also explores the development of interdisciplinary dialogue about the theme.

Book Synopsis The Power of the European Court of Justice by : Susanne K. Schmidt
Download or read book The Power of the European Court of Justice written by Susanne K. Schmidt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has played a vital role in promoting the process of European integration. In recent years, however, the expansion of EU law has led it to impact ever more politically sensitive issues, and controversial ECJ judgments have elicited unprecedented levels of criticism. Can we expect the Court to sustain its role as a motor of deeper integration without Member States or other countervailing forces intervening? To answer this question, we need to revisit established explanations of the Court’s power to see if they remain viable in the Court’s contemporary environment. We also need to better understand the ultimate limits of the Court’s power – the means through which and extent to which national governments, national courts, litigants and the Court’s other interlocutors attempt to influence the Court and to limit the impact of its rulings. In this book, leading scholars of European law and politics investigate how the ECJ has continued to support deeper integration and whether the EU is experiencing an increase in countervailing forces that may diminish the Court’s ability or willingness to act as a motor of integration. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of European Public Policy.
Book Synopsis The European Court of Justice and the Autonomy of the Member States by : Hans-W. Micklitz
Download or read book The European Court of Justice and the Autonomy of the Member States written by Hans-W. Micklitz and published by Intersentia Uitgevers N V. This book was released on 2012 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an impressive body of legal literature on the relationship between the European Court of Justice (ECJ) and its various 'interlocutors' (EU institutions, national jurisdictions, EU interest groups, multinationals, etc.) There has also been occasional speculation at various points in time as to whether or not the ECJ was guilty of 'judicial activism.' Recently however, the ECJ has come under heavy attack from various sides. It has been criticized by leading politicians, national judges, and legal academics for unduly extending the scope of EU law and overstepping its own jurisdiction, to the detriment of the reserved competences or (more broadly) the political autonomy of the Member States. This volume addresses the issue by collecting and confronting the views of leading specialists of EU law, examining the ECJ's recent role in relation to the following five major areas of contention: the general role of the ECJ in defining the scope of EU law in relation to national law * citizenship and migration * fundamental rights and anti-discrimination * internal market * institutional autonomy (rights, remedies, procedures, and sanctions).

Book Synopsis The Mimetic Evolution of the Court of Justice of the EU by : Leonardo Pierdominici
Download or read book The Mimetic Evolution of the Court of Justice of the EU written by Leonardo Pierdominici and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides fresh perspectives in the legal study of the Court of Justice of the European Union. In the context of European studies, the Court has mainly been analysed in light of its central role in the process of continental integration. Moreover, the Court has traditionally been studied by specialists for its important role as an agent of comparative law. This book studies the evolution of the Court itself, rather than that of the EU legal order in its judge-made dimension, and addresses several institutional aspects of its structure and organization, selected and constructed as a complete range of symptomatic figures of judicial institutionalisation. In doing so, the author seeks to showcase how the development and the institutional evolution of the CJEU happened through a selective internalization of comparative influences.
Book Synopsis Europe's Passive Virtues by : JAN. ZGLINSKI
Download or read book Europe's Passive Virtues written by JAN. ZGLINSKI and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-06-04 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Court of Justice has been celebrated as a central force in the creation and deepening of the EU internal market. Yet, it has also been criticized for engaging in judicial activism, restricting national regulatory autonomy, and taking away the powers of Member State institutions. In recent years, the Court appears to afford greater deference to domestic actors in free movement cases. Europe's Passive Virtues explores the scope of and reasons for this phenomenon. It enquires into the decision-making latitude given to the Member States through two doctrines: the margin of appreciation and decentralized judicial review. At the heart of the book lies an original empirical study of the European Court's free movement jurisprudence from 1974 to 2013. The analysis examines how frequently and under which circumstances the Court defers to national authorities. The results suggest that free movement law has substantially changed over the past four decades. The Court is leaving a growing range of decisions in the hands of national law-makers and judges, a trend that affects the level of scrutiny applied to Member State action, the division of powers between the European and national judiciary, and ultimately the nature of the internal market. The book argues that these new-found 'passive virtues' are linked to a series of broader political, constitutional, and institutional developments that have taken place in the EU.

Book Synopsis Justice Contained by : Lisa J. Conant
Download or read book Justice Contained written by Lisa J. Conant and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this probing analysis of the European Union's transnational legal system, Lisa Conant explores the interaction between law and politics. In particular, she challenges the widely held view that the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has, through bold judicial activism, brought about profound policy and institutional changes within the EU's member states. She argues convincingly that this court, like its domestic counterparts, depends on the support of powerful organized interests to gain compliance with its rulings. What, Conant asks, are the policy implications of the ECJ's decisions? How are its rulings applied in practice? Drawing on the rich scholarship on the U.S. Supreme Court, Conant depicts the limits that the ECJ and other tribunals have to face. To illuminate these constraints, she traces the impact of ECJ decisions in four instances concerning market competition and national discrimination. She also proposes ways of anticipating which of this court's legal interpretations are likely to inspire major reforms.Justice Contained closes with a comparative analysis of judicial power, identifying the ECJ as an institution with greater similarities to domestic courts than to international organizations. The book advances a deeper understanding both of the court's contributions to European integration and of the political economy of litigation and reform.
Book Synopsis Judicial Law-Making in European Constitutional Courts by : Monika Florczak-Wątor
Download or read book Judicial Law-Making in European Constitutional Courts written by Monika Florczak-Wątor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-07 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the specificity of the law-making activity of European constitutional courts. The main hypothesis is that currently constitutional courts are positive legislators whose position in the system of State organs needs to be redefined. The book covers the analysis of the law-making activity of four constitutional courts in Western countries: Germany, Italy, Spain, and France; and six constitutional courts in Central–East European countries: Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Latvia, and Bulgaria; as well as two international courts: the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). The work thus identifies the mutual interactions between national constitutional courts and international tribunals in terms of their law-making activity. The chosen countries include constitutional courts which have been recently captured by populist governments and subordinated to political powers. Therefore, one of the purposes of the book is to identify the change in the law-making activity of those courts and to compare it with the activity of constitutional courts from countries in which democracy is not viewed as being under threat. Written by national experts, each chapter addresses a series of set questions allowing accessible and meaningful comparison. The book will be a valuable resource for students, academics, and policy-makers working in the areas of constitutional law and politics.
Book Synopsis The European Court of Human Rights between Law and Politics by : Jonas Christoffersen
Download or read book The European Court of Human Rights between Law and Politics written by Jonas Christoffersen and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 1115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Court of Human Rights between Law and Politics provides a comprehensive analysis of the origins and development of one of the most striking supranational judicial institutions. The book brings together leading scholars and practitioners to cast new light on the substantial jurisprudence and ongoing political reform of the Court. The broad analysis based on historical, legal, and social science perspectives provides new insights into the institutional crisis of the Court and identifies the lessons that can be learned for the future of the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The European Court of Human Rights is in many ways is an unparalleled success. The Court embarked, during the 1970s, upon the development of a progressive and genuinely European jurisprudence. In the post-Cold War era, it went from being the guarantor of human rights solely in Western Europe to becoming increasingly involved in the transition to democracy and the rule of law in Eastern Europe. Now the protector of the human rights of some 800 million Europeans from 47 different countries, the European system is once again deeply challenged - this time by a massive case load and by the Member States' increased reluctance towards the Court. This book paves the way for a better understanding of the system and hence a better basis for choosing the direction of the next stage of development.
Book Synopsis Courts and Judicial Activism under Crisis Conditions by : Martin Belov
Download or read book Courts and Judicial Activism under Crisis Conditions written by Martin Belov and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-22 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection examines topical issues related to the impact of courts on constitutional politics during extreme conditions. The book explores the impact of activist courts on democracy, separation of powers and rule of law in times of emergency constitutionalism. It starts with a theoretical explanation of the concept, features and main manifestations of judicial activism and its impact in shaping the relationship between constitutional, international and supranational law. It then focuses on judicial activism in extreme conditions, for example, in times of emergencies and pandemics, or in the context of democratic backsliding, authoritarian constitutionalism and illiberal constitutionalism. Thus, the book may be considered as a contribution to the debates on judicial activism, including the discussion of the impact of courts on certainty, proportionality and balancing of rights, as well as on revolutionary courts challenging authoritarian context and generally over the role of courts in the context of illiberalism and democratic backsliding. The volume thus offers an explanation of the concept of judicial activism, its impact on both the legal system and the political order and the role of courts in shaping the structures of the legal order. These issues are explored in theoretical and comparative constitutional perspectives. The book will be a valuable resource for academics and researchers working in the areas of courts, constitutional law and constitutional politics.
