Short description:
An authoritative legal critique of the attractions and demerits of European integration.
MoreLong description:
Joseph Weiler presents essays written during the 1990s on issues related to European constitutional law. In a series of highly accessible discussions concerning the legal framework of the European Communities and the European Union, Professor Weiler describes the gradual strengthening of transnational European institutions at the expense of national legislators. Although individuals as legal consumers have been empowered by Community law, he writes, this has been at the expense of their rights as citizens. The Constitution of Europe thus provides from a legal perspective a balanced and authoritative critique of the attractions and demerits of the goal of European integration.
'The Constitution of Europe is an important book about a mighty issue written by someone who is non-partisan. J. H. H. Weiler is an academic before he is a protagonist. He is well versed in the judgements of the European Court, and sensitive to the nuances and changes of European law and politics. He prides himself on being neither Eurosceptic nor Eurofederalist, in an age where Europeans are being forced to join one or other of the warring camps.' John Redwood, The Times Literary Supplement
