National and Regional Parliaments in the EU-Legislative Procedure Post-Lisbon: The Impact of the Early Warning Mechanism


Add your own review!

Overview

Much has changed in European constitutional law after the Lisbon Treaty, not least the efforts to increase democratic legitimacy by engaging national legislatures and introducing a stricter subsidiary review process, namely the Early Warning Mechanism (EWM). This collection looks at how national parliaments have adapted to their new roles and looks at how the new system has impacted on relations between the EU legislative bodies and national parliaments. A team of experts from across Europe explore the effect of the EWM on the national constitutional orders; analyse the regional impact of EWM and evaluate the new system of scrutiny.

Reviews

... the edited collection reviewed here is able to add significant value to the existing field through its unified approach and its in-depth analysis ... We may like the idea of national parliaments, but if in reality this is left to a small body of people and mainly conducted through administrative tasks, to what extent can we speak of this as improving democratic legitimacy? This book contributes to our understanding of these important questions through its rigorous analysis of the mechanism's use in practice. -- Andrew Woodhouse * Common Market Law Review * This edited volume represents an engaging reflection on the evolution of [the early warning mechanism], and it usefully updates the abundant existing literature on this matter. It thoughtfully combines a more general critique of the EWM with a comparative analysis of the legal and political dimensions of its practical functioning. -- Davor Jancic, Queen Mary University of London * European Law Review *
