Publisher Synopsis
This is a brilliant and original analysis of a much neglected aspect of the interaction between politics and law. Susanne Schmidt compellingly demonstrates how ECJ case law sets limits to how political actors can shape European policies. It is a 'mustread' for all studying and practicing politics. * Adrienne Heritier, Emeritus Professor, European University Institute. * Finally, Susanne Schmidt's opus magnum! Representing the sum of more than two decades of widely recognized research and publications, it combines a definitive account of the judicial shaping of a European economic constitution and its impact on diverse fields of national economic and social policy with sophisticated analyses of the methodological foundations and political limits of its legitimacy. Essential reading. * Fritz W. Scharpf, Emeritus Director, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies. * Considered in its entirety, Schmidt's book is an ambitious effort to redirect the debate on European legal integration, whose title ideally would have broadcast the perils of over-constitutionalization. It is an outstanding contribution that demands the attention of scholars and practitioners alike. * Public Adminstration * ....Schmidt's book presents a welcome addition to the existing corpus of literature devoted to the ECJ and will undoubtedly become mandatory reading for those seeking to understand, challenge or endorse the vision of this institution as the motor of European integration. * Common Market Law Review * ...hers is a timely text which merits close reading and reflection and is recommended to scholars of EU law and political science. * JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies * Professor Schmidt uses several case studies to provide a detailed analysis of a number of major ECJ decisions bearing upon the rights of individuals and the binding constraints placed on national courts which, she suggests, must have been one of the factors that drove the British exit from the Union. She is not wrong. When the inevitable obituary of the EU comes to be written, this volume will be an important source in determining the cause of death! * JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY EUROPEAN STUDIES * Read more...
