Introduction The functioning of the Early Warning System (EWS) so far has demonstrated different and even conflicting approaches of the institutions of the European Union (EU) and National Parliaments (NPs) to the scope and nature of the EWS. In this regard, this paper aims at analyzing how NPs of Member States (MSs) reinterpret the scope of the scrutiny of EU legislative proposals in the framework of the EWS. The strictly formalistic reading of the EWS in the Treaties and the Protocols defines the EWS as a narrow mechanism for the scrutiny of the compliance of the legislative proposals with the subsidiarity principle, the point stressed by the Commission and some scholars.1 * L’articolo è stato sottoposto, in conformità al regolamento della Rivista, a double blind peer review 1 F. Fabbrini and K. Granat, “Yellow Card, But No Foul”: the Role of the National Parliaments under the Subsidiarity Protocol and the Commission Proposal for ISSN 2532-6619 - 4 - N. 2/2018 Bekhzod Kodirov Reinterpretation of the Scope of the Early Warning System by National Parliaments Yellow Card against the Revision of the Posted Workers Directive In contrast, several scholars assert that also the scrutiny of the principle of proportionality in the framework of the EWS is inevitable since the principle of subsidiarity and the principle of proportionality are interlinked and ‘even overlap in some manner’ which makes strict separation of these principles impossible, and due to the necessity of consideration of the principle of proportionality in assessing the efficacy of EU legislation.2 Moreover, according to some authors, the political nature of NPs presupposes the political interpretation of the EWS on the part of NPs who are predisposed to use the EWS as a political instrument to contain competence creep of EU institutions and to protect national constitutional essentials from the adverse effect of EU decision-making.3 The Lisbon Treaty introduced among other novelties the EWS for the subsidiarity monitoring to address ‘democratic deficit’ and ‘democratic disconnect’ problems in European governance. The former problem is characterized by the incapability of the EU decision-making to ensure ‘government of the people, by the people and for the people’.4 The latter is defined as the ‘disconnect’ between the bureaucratic and distant EU governance and the national institutions as the sources of democratic and constitutional legitimacy.5 The subsidiarity is one of the fundamental principles for the Union competences alongside with the principle of conferral and the principle of proportionality, which consider a specific question in the vertical allocation of powers between the EU and the MSs, since the conferral principle asks “can” the EU take a proposed measure, an EU Regulation on the Right to Strike, in Common Market Law Review, vol. 50, 2013, p. 115. 2 S.

  • The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group: Towards an Inevitable Decline? Bruno Marino 22 April 20141
    The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group: Towards an inevitable decline? Bruno Marino 22 April 20141 The Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Group (from now on, ALDE Group) is the third most numerous group within the European Par- liament, after the European People’s Party group and the Party of European Socialists group. The ALDE group is made up by Members of the European Parliament (from now on, MEPs) coming from two different European par- ties, i.e., the European Democratic Party and the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party. The liberal democratic group2 has had a very interesting historical devel- opment. In the 1960s, after the exit of the Gaullist MEPs, the liberal group formed within the Common Assembly of the European Coal and Steel Com- munity started a long path of change and inclusion of new members as the European integration went on. Analysing the history of the liberal democratic group also means analysing the change of its name. From 1979 until 1985 within the European Parliament, there was the Lib- eral and Democratic Group, in which there were different parties, such as the French UDF, the Italian PRI and PLI, or the German FDP. From 1985 until the mid-1990s, the liberal democratic group changed its name, becoming the Liberal and Democratic Reformist Group. In this period, parties coming from different countries (like the Portuguese Social Democratic Party) joined the group. In 1994, there was another change; the Group of the European Liberal 1 This article was originally published in Italian on the CISE website.

Its activity focuses on the study of elections and their institutional framework. The CISE carries out a range of research activities with different points of view on the electoral process: from the analysis of individual voting behavior (investigated through an independent, regular series of CATI surveys) to analyses of election results based on aggregate data (also including the study of vote shifts and of electoral geography), to research on electoral systems and their related legislation. The CISE research activity is also carried out through partnerships with other Italian and international scholars, as well as with national and international research centers and research programmes.

  • War, Socialism and the Rise of Fascism: an Empirical Exploration*
    War, Socialism and the Rise of Fascism: An Empirical Exploration* Daron Acemoglu Giuseppe De Feo MIT University of Leicester Giacomo De Luca Gianluca Russo Free University of Bozen Universitat Pompeu Fabra University of York June 2021 Abstract The recent ascent of right-wing populist movements in many countries has rekindled interest in under- standing the causes of the rise of Fascism in inter-war years. In this paper, we argue that there was a strong link between the surge of support for the Socialist Party after World War I (WWI) and the sub- sequent emergence of Fascism in Italy. We first develop a source of variation in socialist support across Italian municipalities in the 1919 election based on war casualties from the area. We show that these casu- alties are unrelated to a battery of political, economic and social variables before the war and had a major impact on socialist support (partly because the Socialists were the main anti-war political movement). Our main result is that this boost to socialist support (that is “exogenous” to the prior political leaning of the municipality) led to greater local fascist activity as measured by local party branches and fascist political violence (squadrismo), and to significantly larger vote share of the Fascist Party in the 1921 and 1924 elections. We also provide evidence that landowner associations and greater presence of local elites played an important role in the rise of Fascism. Finally, we find greater likelihood of Jewish deportations in 1943-45 and lower vote share for Christian Democrats after World War II in areas with greater early fascist activity.

  • CHAPTER 3: Poles in the Austrian Parliament
    CHAPTER 3: Poles in the Austrian Parliament 1. The Imperial Council The origins of the Austrian parliament can be traced back to the so-called Adjunct Council (Beirath), established during the rule of Maximilian I and Ferdinand I� Only under Maria Theresa did it grow in significance� It was renamed the Council of State in 1760�916 Subsequently, following the Spring of Nations, in 1849, it assumed certain characteristics of a representative body and was renamed the Imperial Council� The basis for this change was established by the March Constitution, octroyed by the Emperor in 1848�917 The creation of the Imperial Council was also predicted in other draft constitutions, �i e� of April 1848 and the so-called Kroměříž draft constitutions of 1849� However, due to their excessively liberal nature and the ongoing revolution, they did not come into effect� We also need to highlight the fact that it is the Spring of Nations that we should consider as the beginning of the Habsburg monarchy’s systemic trans- formations toward constitutionalism in its modern sense� In the literature we can find an established view which posits that the dramatic events of that period ini- tiated the process of systemic transformations in Austria� This view is equivalent to considering this date as the starting point for any discussions on the absolute state’s transformation into a constitutional state� On April 25, 1848, the Constitutional Charter of the Austrian Empire, commonly referred to as the April Constitution, was enacted� Its scope was 916 F� Kasparek, Podręcznik
