Allan Rosas is one of the leading European Union jurists of his generation. His impact on the legal landscape of the EU has been immense. This collection brings together colleagues from the worlds of the judiciary, academia and practice to grapple with one of the key questions underpinning his contribution: is the trajectory of EU law one of ever-changing union? With essays exploring a range of topics from national identity and European construction to Brexit, this collection is a fitting tribute to an unrivalled EU law career.

Perspectives on the Future of EU Law in Honour of Allan Rosas

An Ever-Changing Union?

Burkhard Hess

Am 27. September 1968 unterzeichneten die sechs EG-Mitgliedstaaten das Brüsseler Übereinkommen über die gerichtliche Zuständigkeit und Vollstreckung gerichtlicher Entscheidungen in Zivil- und Handelssachen. Anlässlich des 50. Jubiläums dieses Meilensteins veranstalteten der Europäischen Gerichtshof und das Max-Planck-Institut Luxemburg eine internationale Konferenz zu den wichtigsten Entwicklungen, Errungenschaften und Herausforderungen des europäischen Zivilprozessrechts. Dieses Buch beinhaltet Beiträge von Mitgliedern des Europäischen Gerichtshofes, etablierten Wissenschaftlern und jungen Forschern über das Brüsseler Regime. Es dient zur Veranschaulichung des Dialogs zwischen dem EuGH und den nationalen Gerichten über die Auslegung des europäischen Zivilprozessrechts, sowie dessen Einfluss auf die Europäisierung des internationalen Privatrechts. Es thematisiert Überlegungen zur Zukunft des europäischen Zivilprozessrechts und der Eignung des Brüsseler Regimes in der heutigen Zeit.

The 50th Anniversary of the European Law of Civil Procedure

The European Union is unique amongst international organisations in that it has a highly developed and coherent system of judicial protection. The rights derived from Union law can be enforced in court, as opposed to other international organisations whereby enforceability is often far less certain. At the heart of the system of judicial protection in the European Union is the core principle of upholding the rule of law. As such, the stakes are high in the sense that the system of the judicial protection in the European Union must live up to its promise in which individuals, Member States and Union institutions are all guaranteed a route by which to enforce Union law rights. This book provides a rigorously structured analysis of the EU system of judicial protection and procedure before the Union courts. It examines the role and the competences of the Union courts and the types of actions that may be brought before them, such as the actions for infringement, annulment, and failure to act, as well as special forms of procedure, for example interim relief, appeals, and staff cases. In doing so, special attention is given to the fields of EU competition law and State aid. In addition it evaluates the relationship between the Court of Justice and the national courts through the preliminary ruling procedure and the interplay between EU law and the national procedural frameworks generally. Throughout, it takes account of significant institutional developments, including the relevant changes brought by the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty and the amendments to the Statute of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the Rules of Procedure of the Court of Justice and the General Court. Previously published as The Procedural Law of the European Union, this thoroughly revised work will continue to be the first port of call for legal practitioners and academics seeking guidance on the system of judicial protection in the EU.
