EUROPEAN LAW AND INSTITUTIONS
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
- EU law = a source of law (not a branch of law)
- EU law = national law
o EU law has always primacy over national law. So national law has to enforce EU law as if it is national
law.
- EU constitutional law ↔ EU substantive law
o EU constitutional law (grondwettelijk recht): How the EU works; what is the content of the ‘constitution’ of
the EU…
o EU substantive law: EU law covering the different branches of law (s.e. EU social law…)
- EEC → EC → EU
o EEC = European Economic Community
o EC = European Community
o EU = European Union
- Up-to-date copy of the TEU, the TFEU and the CFREU
o TEU = Treaty of the EU (= Verdrag betreffende de Europese Unie, VEU)
o TFEU = Treaty of the Function of the EU (= Verdrag over het functioneren van de Europese Unie, VWEU)
o CFREU = Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU (= Handvest van fundamentele rechten van de
Europese Unie, HFREU)
Because of the Brexit, we now have 27 members of the EU. Until the end of 2020 they follow the rules of the EU, after
that, we still don’t know if there will be a soft Brexit or a hard Brexit.

“A day will come when all the nations of this continent, without losing their distinct qualities or their glorious
individuality, will fuse together in a higher unity and form of European brotherhood.
A day will come when the only battlefield will be the marketplace for competing ideas.
A day will come when bullets and bombs will be replaced by votes.” – Victor Hugo, 1894
- Konrad Adenauer: first Chancellor of the Federal Republic
of Germany (West Germany) from 1949 to 1963
- Simone Veil: Holocaust survivor, French magistrate and
stateswoman who served as Health Minister in several
governments and was President of the European
Parliament from 1979 to 1982

from 1940 to 1945 during the Second World War, and
again from 1951 to 1955

Italy in eight successive coalition governments from 1945
to 1953
- Robert Schuman: French Foreign Minister

Churchill’s “iron From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an "Iron Curtain" has descended across the
Curtain” Speech continent.
(1946) Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe.
Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia; all these famous
cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are
subject, in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and in some
cases increasing measure of control from Moscow.
Fulton speech Winston Churchill warned of the rise of Soviet power and the descent of an ‘iron curtain’ across
(March 1946) the continent
Zurich speech he reiterated his call for a United States of Europe, based now on Franco-German
(19/9/1946) reconciliation, and proposed the creation of a Council of Europe as a stepping stone towards
that goal

, European Atomic energy community still exists.
The European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) was signed in Rome 1957 by the same six countries which
made up the ECSC. The object: The furtherance of atomic energy for peaceful purposes, together with a commitment
to ensure uniform safety standards.
The European economic community (EEC) was born like EURATOM as a result of the Spaak Report and the treaty
establishing the EEC. This treaty was signed in Rome by the same six states as the treaties before. Further
similarities are that the new Community was to be administered by four bodies/institutions to which he Member States
had delegated (volmachtigd) the right of independent action in certain specified areas.
There was a difference between the EURATOM and ECSC and the EEC. The first 2 were limited in their scope, being
functionalist and their aims: the creation of a common market in coal and steel and in atomic energy. The EEC was
significantly broader in its approach. It was created with the task of working towards integration of all aspects of the
economies of its states, not only the integration of specific industries.
