  • Verfassung Und Verwaltung in Europa
    Ulrich Becker/Armin Hatje/ Michael Potacs/Nina Wunderlich (Hrsg.) Verfassung und Verwaltung in Europa Festschrift für Jürgen Schwarze zum 70. Geburtstag Nomos BUT_Hatje_FS Schwarze_1365-3.indd 3 23.05.14 09:19 Vorwort Diese Festschrift ist Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Jürgen Schwarze gewidmet, der am 9. Juli 2014 sein 70. Lebensjahr vollendet. In Bielefeld geboren studierte er nach dem Abitur 1964 Rechtswissenschaft an den Universitäten Göttingen, Münster und Freiburg im Breisgau. Die Erste Juristische Staatsprüfung legte er 1968 ab. Die Promotion erfolgte im Jahr darauf mit einer Arbeit über den Eingriff in den Gewerbebetrieb durch Gesetz. Das Zweite Juristische Staats- examen bestand er 1971 in Stuttgart. Schon mit 27 Jahren war Jürgen Schwarze ein promovierter Assessor mit glänzenden Ergebnissen. Auch die Geschwindigkeit und Qualität seiner weiteren beruflichen Entwicklung sind nicht minder bemerkenswert. Im Jahre 1976, also mit gerade einmal 32 Jah- ren, wurde Jürgen Schwarze von der Universität Freiburg mit der von Werner von Simson betreuten Schrift „Die Befugnis zur Abstraktion im Eu- ropäischen Gemeinschaftsrecht“ für Öffentliches Recht einschließlich Eu- roparecht habilitiert. Er gehörte damit zu den wenigen seiner Generation, die sich ausdrücklich einem neuen Rechtsgebiet zuwandten, das heute in kaum einer Venia fehlen darf. Nach Lehrstuhlvertretungen in München und Heidelberg folgte 1978 der Ruf auf eine Professur an die Ruhr-Universität Bochum. Bereits zwei Jahre später erreichte ihn der ehrenvolle Ruf auf den renommierten Lehrstuhl für Öffentliches Recht unter besonderer Berück- sichtigung des Europarechts an der Universität Hamburg. Seine Vorgänger waren der Altmeister des Europarechts Hans Peter Ipsen und der früh ver- storbene Christoph Sasse. Von 1986 bis 1989 wurde Jürgen Schwarze für die Wahrnehmung einer Professur am Europäischen Hochschulinstitut in Florenz beurlaubt.

  • Andreas Grimmel* What Characterises the EU Today Is That It Is Not Only A
    ‘THIS IS NOT LIFE AS IT IS LIVED HERE’: THE COURT OF JUSTICE OF THE EU AND THE MYTH OF JUDICIAL ACTIVISM IN THE FOUNDATIONAL PERIOD OF INTEGRATION THROUGH LAW Andreas Grimmel* What characterises the EU today is that it is not only a multi-level governance system, but also a multi-context system. The making of Europe does not just take place on different levels within the European political framework, executed and fostered by different groups of actors or institutions. Rather, it also happens in different and distinguishable social contexts – distinct functional, historical, and local frameworks of reasoning and action – that political science alone cannot sufficiently analyse with conventional and generalising models of explanation. European law is one such context, and it should be perceived as a self-contained sphere governed by a specific rationality that constitutes a self-generating impetus for integration. By way of re-examining the much-debated ‘foundational period’ of the CJEU’s jurisdiction, it will be shown here that only by analysing the context of European law as an independent space of reasoning and action can the role of Europe’s high court in the process of integration be adequately captured.

  • International Courts and Public Opinion: Explaining the CJEU's
    International Courts and Public Opinion: Explaining the CJEU’s Role in Protecting Terror Suspects’ Rights∗ Michael F. Harsch1 and Vladislav Maksimov2 1Division of Social Science, New York University Abu Dhabi 2Paris School of International Affairs, Sciences Po November 6, 2018 Forthcoming in JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies Abstract Under what conditions can regional and international courts (ICs) make decisions against their governments’ preferences? To answer this much debated question, we develop a new model of state-IC relations. It posits that in cases where well-established ICs’ positions are congruent with policy-specific public opinion in leading member states, ICs can rule against their governments’ position. We apply our approach to a series of landmark decisions by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) regarding United Nations sanctions against terror suspects. We find that the CJEU was able to harness growing public support to strengthen terror suspects’ rights, punish states for superficial compliance with its rulings and ultimately broaden the Court’s judicial review powers. Our analysis suggests that ICs can be agents of legal change and advance human rights against governments’ resistance, but this role is conditional on the presence of public support. ∗We thank James Alt, Jose´ Alvarez, Swethaa Ballakrishnen, Megan Bradley, Grainne´ de Burca,´ David Chekroun, Peter Goodrich, Barry Hashimoto, Miguel Poiares Maduro, Henriette Muller,¨ Ron Rogowski, Sidak Yntiso, and Leah Zamore.

Patrick Kelly 2 Abstract The Court of Justice of the European Union characterizes the Union as a Rechtsunion: a law- governed union. The conception of “the law” in Article 19 paragraph 1 of the Treaty on European Union transcends the Treaties, according to the Vice-President of the Court of Justice, Koen Lenaerts. This thesis demonstrates with reference to the work of Georg Jellinek that the Union is a non-sovereign state and, with reference to the work of Eugen Ehrlich in particular, that the state-based perception of law is a misperception.
