Second Edition

The European Union and its court of justice

Questions examined include the jurisdiction of the Court; the relationship between Union law and national law; and the protection of fundamental rights.

The book also looks at certain key areas of substantive law which have to a large extent been judicially constructed. In the final section, some overarching themes relating to the Court’s overall approach are addressed. To what extent has it evolved with the development of the Union? What has been the Court’s relationahsiop with the other institutions of the Union and the national courts of the Member States? Should we regard the central role the Court has played in the development of the Union as legitimate? What is the nature of the role reserved for the Court under the Union’s Constitutional Treaty, signed by the Member States in Rome on 29 October 2004? What effect would the demise of that Treaty have on the Court? The book will be of interest to anyone concerned with the development of the European Union and the role of the Court in that process.

Anthony Arnull is Professor of European Law and Director of the Institute of European Law, University of Birmingham.
