Résumé
A comparative and comprehensive account of the jurisprudence of
constitutional conflict between the Court of Justice and national courts
with the power of constitutional review. This monograph addresses the
incidences of, and reasons for, constitutional clashes in the
application and enforcement of EU law. It aims to determine how the
principle of primacy of EU law works in reality and whether the
jurisprudence of the courts under analysis supports this concept. To
this end, the book explores the three areas of constitutional conflict: ultra vires
review, identity review, and fundamental rights review. The book
substantiates the descriptive and strengthens the normative
contributions of the theory of constitutional pluralism in relation to
the web of relations in the European judicial space.
By examining
the influence that the jurisprudence of constitutional conflict has on
the balance of powers between the Court of Justice and constitutional
courts, the volume develops the judicial triangle as an analytical tool
that depicts the consequences for the horizontal (constitutional courts vis-à-vis the Court of Justice) and vertical judicial relationships (Court of Justice vis-à-vis ordinary national courts; constitutional courts vis-à-vis ordinary national courts).
By offering a thorough compilation of the jurisprudence of constitutional conflict in the EU, The Jurisprudence of Constitutional Conflict in the European Union
improves our understanding of the principle of primacy of EU law and
its limits, as well as reinforces the theory of constitutional pluralism
in explaining and guiding judicial power relations and interactions in
the EU.
