Notes European Union LawLecture 1 – European Union Law
Why an EU law course in a GLB Law Program?
- Historical
o The EU is a successful example of ‘’integration through law’’
Use law (especially interaction national and supranational courts) to
deal with transboundary problems
Challenge the state paradigm that individual rights depend mainly on
nationality
- Conceptual
o Key questions in common between the functioning of Global Law the
functioning of EU law
Conflicts of jurisdiction: can we do without an authority that has the
final say?
Institutional design: can representative democracy work beyond the
nation state model?
Relation between Law/Politics/Society/Market: which goals should
regulation pursue? What is ‘’good’’ regulation?
- Practical
o Nowadays, EU law sets standards of regulation which are applicable beyond
EU
Example: Council Directive 2001/51/EC (Carriers Liability Directive)
Formality: the addressee of this legal act are EU Member States
Content: MS are obliged to impose sanctions on carriers transporting
foreigners (TCNs) into their territory, when TCNs do not satisfy the
entry conditions established by EU Law for crossing EU External
borders.
Sanction: not less than 3000 for each passenger carried +
assuming the costs of the stay and return
o Carriers? KLM, Emirates etc.
Effects?
Private companies perform tasks usually reserved to
immigration officers (outside the territory of the EU)
Doubtful cases? Boarding is refused!
What is the European Union?
- The EU is an International Organization (IO) (like WWO, UN)
- Created by a Treaty (International Law)
- To achieve certain goals
- Equipped with the necessary design (powers, institutions) to achieve those goals;
- The EU has a regional nature
- But it is not the only IO in the European Region (Council of Europe)
,Relation EU and CoE
- CoE is another IO with a regional nature
- ECHR (1950) International Treaty, catalogue of rights
- ECtHR (compulsory supranational court)
What is the relation with the ECHR?
- European Convention on Human Rights is NOT EU LAW!!
o Future Accession, see art 6(2) TEU
o Fundamental Rights as guaranteed in the ECHR and in MS constitutional
systems are general principles of EU Law.
o Interpretation CFR: not lowering standards of protection ECHR, see art 53
CFR
What is the current structure of the EU? (2009)
- The EU is based on… the Lisbon Treaty (2 treaties – same legal value)
o TEU: general provisions
Democratic principles. EU principles, Institutions, Enhanced
cooperation, External action
o TFEU: specific provisions
Rules on EU competences, functioning of: institutions, policies,
decision making
o Charter of Fundamental Right (CFR)
Separate, but same value (see art. 6(1) TEU)
Belongs to EU primary law
Catalogue of rights in the EU?
- Charter of Fundamental Rights (CFR)
o Created in 2000 it became hard law with the Lisbon Treaty
- Before?
o Already individual rights in CJEU’s Case Law
- In between?
o CFR used as soft law (interpretative tool)
- Scope of application
o The CFR applies only when EU law is applicable (for instance, when MS
implement EU law)
