The EU's activity under its intergovernmental pillars - The Common
Foreign and Security Policy and Justice and Home Affairs - has
traditionally been beyond the scope of judicial control offered by
the central EC legal system. The increasing importance of this
activity, and its growing intrusion into the lives of individuals,
has led to a sense that the level of judicial oversight and
protection is insufficient and that the constitutional balance of
the Union stands in urgent need of reform. While the need for
reform is widely recognised, wholesale constitutional change has
been stalled by the failure to ratify the Constitutional Treaty and
the delay in ratifying the Treaty of Lisbon. This book charts the
attempts to develop more satisfactory judicial control over the
intergovernmental pillars in the face of such constitutional
inertia. It examines the leading role played by the European Court
of Justice in reforming its own jurisdiction, and analyses the
ECJ's development as a constitutional court in comparison with more
established constitutional adjudicators. Throughout the book the
current constitutional position is compared extensively to the
reforms introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon, offering a timely
snapshot of the EU's federal structure in a state of flux.
