This collection reveals the Janus-faced character of federalism in
the European Union. Federalism appears in two main forms in the EU.
On the one hand, numerous formerly unitary Member States have
embarked on a path towards a (quasi-)federal governance structure.
On the other hand, the EU itself is sometimes qualified as a
federal system. Significantly, the concept of federalism has a very
different, even opposite, connotation in both contexts. When
associated with Member State reform, federalism is regarded as a
technique for accommodating autonomy claims of sub-state nations.
By contrast, when federalism is used as a label for the EU itself,
it is conceived as a far-reaching way of integrating the nations of
Europe. This dual appearance of federalism in the EU context is
central to the structure of the book. The focus of this book's
first set of essays is on domestic federalization processes, more
particularly on the impact of these processes on EU law and vice
versa. In a second set of contributions, the attention shifts to
the question as to whether the EU itself can be described as a
federal system, and whether it can learn from existing federations.
