The European Union today stands on the brink of radical
institutional and constitutional change. The most recent
enlargement and proposed legal reforms reflect a commitment to
democracy: stabilizing political life for citizens governed by new
regimes, and constructing a European Union more accountable to
civil society. Despite the perceived novelty of these reforms, this
book explains (through quantitative data and qualitative case
analyses) how the European Court of Justice has developed and
sustained a vibrant tradition of democratic constitutionalism since
the 1960s. The book documents the dramatic consequences of this
institutional change for civil society and public policy reform
throughout Europe. Cichowski offers detailed empirical and
historical studies of gender equality and environmental protection
law across fifteen countries and over thirty years, revealing
important linkages between civil society, courts and the
construction of governance. The findings bring into question
dominant understandings of legal integration.
