Giuseppe Martinico - Routledge, 2012 Anteprima del libro
Despite the rejection of the EU Constitutional Treaty eventually leading to
the adoption of the Lisbon Treaty, the debates concerning the European Union’s
constitutional framework continue. This book builds on the discourse in European
Union constitutionalism in order to offer a novel analysis of the EU’s

Giuseppe Martinico sets out a unique account of EU constitutionalism which
argues that the EU legal order is a complex entity which shares some features
with natural systems. The book is soundly anchored in the theory and methodology
of legal science and based on a deep knowledge of judicial practices. The author
contends that Europe is still suffering from the failure of the Constitutional
Treaty and is practicing the new institutional equilibrium afforded by the
coming into force of the Reform Treaty. The book goes on to explore the
methodological implications of such constitutional complexity for the study of
EU law. The Tangled Complexity of the EU Constitutional Process will be
of particular interest to academics and students in the disciplines of Law,
International Relations and Political Science.
