Synopsis: |
It is impossible to overstate the impact of European Union Law on the national legal orders of its Member States. Supremacy and direct effect have empowered individuals and granted them rights based on EU law that national courts must protect. This has impacted on legal reasoning and has given rise for the need to rethink its methodology. This innovative new study suggest that critical legal studies (CLS), prevalent in the jurisprudence of the United States, could provide the methodological tools required to gain a fresh perspective on the role of the European Courts. The examination takes a four part approach: starting with the how judges make decisions and how policy and ideology impact on that process. It then (through the lens of CLS) explores the substantive aspects of EU law. Part three looks at the selection process of judges. The collection concludes with an assessment of the impact of the academic discourse and its role in influencing practising lawyers in the field. This exciting new work offers a fresh, critical perspective on judges and the operation of justice in the EU. |
