Book Description
DANS SA FORME - COMPLEXE - D'UNION, LE PROCESSUS D'INTEGRATION EUROPEENNE EST CONFRONTE A UN DEFICIT CONSTITUTIONNEL BIEN PLUS QU'A UN DEFICIT DEMOCRATIQUE. IL EST POSSIBLE DE CONSTATER QUE DES A PRESENT, UNE SOLUTION TENTE D'ETRE APPORTEE A CE PROBLEME SOUS LA FORME D'UN PROCESSUS DE CONSTITUTIONNALISATION. SANS REPONDRE A UN PLAN PRE- DETERMINE, CE PROCESSUS RESULTE DE MULTIPLES INTERACTIONS. IL PEUT NEANMOINS ETRE SAISI PAR DEUX MOUVEMENTS QUI SE FORTIFIENT, S'INTERPENETRENT ET PERMETTENT DE DEGAGER UNE IDENTITE CONSTITUTIONNELLE POUR L'UNION. UN PROCESSUS DE MATURATION D'UN COHESION POLITIQUE FONDAMENTALE SE DEGAGE ET S'APPUIE SUR DES VALEURS CONSTITUTIONNELLES, LA CITOYENNETE ET LES DROITS FONDAMENTAUX (1ERE PARTIE). UN PROCESSUS DE GESTATION D'UNE COHERENCE DEMOCRATIQUE GLOBALE SE PRECISE ET PASSE PAR LE RENFORCEMENT DE L'ARTICULATION DES NIVEAUX DE POUVOIR DANS LE SYSTEME DE L'UNION AINSI QUE PAR LA RATIONALISATION DEMOCRATIQUE DU SYSTEME INSTITUTIONNEL DE L'UNION (2EME PARTIE). TOUT CE PROCESSUS S'AFFIRME SOUS L'EFFET D'UNE ETHIQUE CONSTITUTIONNELLE. NOURRIE DU PATRIMOINE CONSTITUTIONNEL EUROPEEN COMMUN, CETTE ETHIQUE EST FONDEE SUR DES PRINCIPES DE CITOYENNETE, COOPERATION ET LOYAUTE. LA FORCE DE LA CONSTITUTIONNALISATION DE L'UNION DEPEND DE LA PRISE EN CONSIDERATION DES PRINCIPES DU PATRIMOINE COMMUN MAIS EGALEMENT DE LA DEFINITION ET DE L'ARTICULATION DES PRINCIPES DE CITOYENNETE, DE COOPERATION ET DE LOYAUTE. EN VOIE D'EMERGENCE, L'IDENTITE CONSTITUTIONNELLE DE L'UNION MERITE D'ETRE RESOLUMENT AFFIRMEE. CETTE EXIGENCE IMPLIQUE LA CONSOLIDATION DE L'IDENTITE INTERNATIONALE DE L'UNION. ELLE PASSE AUSSI PAR LA REFLEXION SUR UN TRAITE FONDAMENTAL OU UNE CONSTITUTION POUR L'UNION. QUELLE QUE SOIT LA METHODE CHOISIE, L'AFFIRMATION DE L'IDENTITE CONSTITUTIONNELLE DE L'UNION NECESSITERA LA PARTICIPATION DES CITOYENS.

Book Description
This collection of studies intends to honour Heinrich Klebes, who both as a distinguished international civil servant and as a scholar and analyst has made and continues to make an important contribution to the development of European cooperation in general and within the Council of Europe in particular. At the same time, it offers a unique and stimulating analysis of the development of a common body of law in the wider Europe. The twenty-nine articles contained in this volume are grouped together under five headings: - commitment to democratic standards; - protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms; - the Council of Europe in context; - the common legal space; - common problems of democracy and transatlantic relations.

Book Description
This book provides an up-to-date interdisciplinary assessment of the accountability of executive power in different European States and at the European Union level. From a legal perspective, it wonders to what extent the forms of responsibility and accountability of executive power have evolved in terms of legal technique or framework. From a historical perspective, it looks at the evolution of responsibility paradigms. From a political science perspective, it examines responsibility and the expectations of European democracies in terms of authority and efficiency. The volume also has a quantitative aspect identifying, gathering and analysing statistical material on responsibility and accountability in current political regimes. The book will be a valuable resource for researchers, academics, and policy-makers in constitutional law and politics, public law, comparative law, comparative politics, legal history and government.

Book Description
The year 2000's most significant international event was, almost certainly, neither political nor military, but scientific - the announcement, in June, that the human genome had been almost totally decoded. Future generations may well see this as a major turning point, opening the way to radical changes in diagnosis, prognosis, and medical treatment. Often compared with the space programme, this vast enterprise still generates misgivings: this new power, which human beings now have, to modify the genetic heritage of living creatures raises fundamentally new ethical questions - and society as a whole will have to find the answers. In fact, the accelerating pace of scientific and technical progress seems to be reviving atavistic anxieties, some rational, others less so. Recent public-health crises, including the mad cow disease' scare, which lasted into 2000, have fuelled these fears. The public's rejection of GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) - verging on a crusade in some countries - tells its own story. As regards conflict, 2000 saw the Middle East peace process grind to a halt, and the Intifada resume. In Europe, the situation in Kosovo and Chechnya, both the scenes of fighting in 1999, stayed precarious. Peace and democracy did score some successes, however, particularly in Europe: the centre-left's victory in Croatia, sweeping former President Tudjman's party off the scene, the democratic party's triumph in Bosnia, and the fall of the Milosevic regime in Serbia.

Book Description
En 2019, 40 ans après la première élection des membres du Parlement européen au suffrage universel direct en 1979, les citoyens de l’Union étaient une neuvième fois appelés aux urnes. Entre ces deux dates, le Parlement européen a profondément changé, passant d’une simple assemblée consultative au colégislateur de droit commun d’une Union européenne en proie à de nombreuses crises. Les contributions au présent ouvrage, tirées des travaux d’un colloque international qui s’est tenu à l’Université de Bordeaux les 9 et 10 mai 2019, entendent dresser le bilan, les enjeux et les perspectives, tant des élections européennes de 2019 que de la démocratie représentative européenne de façon globale. In 2019, 40 years after the first election of members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage in 1979, the citizens of the Union were called to the polls for the ninth time. Between these two dates, the European Parliament changed dramatically, from a mere consultative assembly to the ordinary co-legislator of a European Union plagued by many crises. This book draws on an international conference held at the University of Bordeaux on May 9 and 10, 2019. The various contributions therein intend to take stock, examine the challenges and envisage the prospects, not only of the 2019 European elections but also of representative European democracy in general.

Book Description
This publication contains the reports presented at the UniDem Seminar in Skopje. Foreign policy unquestionably serves the national interest in the broadest sense but nowadays it is no longer left entirely to discretion of governments. The legal foundation of foreign policy are made up both of rules of international law and rules of domestic law, whilst remaining an under-regulated area of democracy and of the law. The seminar in Skopje was an initiative which permitted an exchange of views on this subject between representatives of different countries.

Book Description
The European Union's values - enshrined in Article 2 TEU - have come under severe pressure in several Member States. In response, the Court of Justice has set a spectacular development in motion. With its ruling in Associação Sindical dos Juízes Portugueses it activated the Union's common values and positioned Article 2 TEU at the very heart of its jurisprudence. Turning Article 2 TEU into an operational, judicially applicable provision, the Court has begun to assess the Member States' constitutional structures against these yardsticks. Since then, the jurisprudence has evolved with remarkable speed. EU Values Before the Court of Justice provides a first comprehensive study of the judicial mobilisation of Article 2 TEU. It starts by developing the foundations of this emerging jurisprudence in empirical, doctrinal, and theoretical terms. In this book, Spieker seeks to advance a new understanding of Article 2. He argues that the provision should be understood as having a dual character that resonates between two dimensions, namely an EU dimension limited to the EU legal order and a 'Verbund' dimension that extends to the common whole of the Union and its Member States. Article 2 plays different roles in these two spheres - as thick constitutional core of the EU legal order and as thin constitutional frame for the 'Verbund'. This dual character should guide the provision's future judicial development. The book sets out to explore the multifaceted potential of Article 2 TEU in each of these two dimensions. As such, it goes far beyond the current focus on illiberal developments in Member States and strives to broaden our horizon for the judicial mobilisation of EU values. The book closes by assessing the risks of placing an activated Article 2 into the hands of Luxembourg judges and proposes ways to recalibrate the jurisprudence.
