The Enforcement of EU Law and Values: Ensuring Member States' Compliance 1st Edition, Kindle Edition

It is clear that the current crisis of the EU is not confined to the Eurozone and the EMU, evidenced in its inability to ensure the compliance of Member States to follow the principles and values underlying the integration project in Europe (including the protection of democracy, the Rule of Law, and human rights). This defiance has affected the Union profoundly, and in a multi-faceted assessment of this phenomenon, The Enforcement of EU Law and Values: Ensuring
Member States' Compliance, dissects the essence of this crisis, examining its history and offering coping methods for the years to come.

Defiance is not a new concept and this volume explores the richness of EU-level and national-level examples of historical defiance – the French Empty Chair policy–, the Luxembourg compromise, and the FPÖ crisis in Austria - and draws on the experience of the US legal system and that of the integration projects on other continents. Building on this legal-political context, the book focuses on the assessment of the adequacy of the enforcement mechanisms whilst learning from EU
integration history.

Structured in four parts, the volume studies (1) theoretical issues on defiance in the context of multi-layered legal orders, (2) EU mechanisms of acquis and values' enforcement, (3) comparative perspective on law-enforcement in multi-layered legal systems, and (4) case-studies of defiance in the EU.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The volume, with its collection of well-fitting contributions, updates the reader on the current state of European legal research on the implementation of Union values and provides an sketch of relevant national and supranational solutions [translation]" -- Der Staat

"There is no doubt that Jakab-Kochenov volume makes a significant contribution to the on-going discussion." -- European Constitutional Law Review

"The book represents a valuable contribution ... what it offers might be of interest beyond the confines of the legal discipline DS the book is potentially well-placed to form the legal backbone of some research in political science and international relations." -- Common Market Law Review

"A milestone to understand the roots of the ongoing crisis." -- European Public Law

"Sheds new light on the enforcement of Union values." -- Hungarian Yearbook of European and International Law

"This is a path-breaking contribution whose innovative thought-provoking analysis will capture the readers within the discussion of one of the key issues in Europe today: the protection and enforcement of rule of law and other key values. A must for anyone interested in possible future paths of law
and values' enforcement as well as the current state of the law." -Gianni Buquicchio, President, Venice Commission for Democracy through Law

"This well timed and wide-ranging book is a must read for anyone interested in the question whether and how the European Union might succeed as a community of values committed to the rule of law." -Mattias Kumm, NYU School of Law and WZB Berlin Social Science Research Center

"Certain books deserve particular attention at moments of despair. The current confusion in the EU is such a moment and this book is the one that deserves the attention. It points to what responsible politicians do not wish to admit: that the EU is devoid of effective remedies to have its rules and
values enforced." -András Sajó, Hungarian Academy of Sciences
