In twenty years, there could be a European Federation, a United
States of Europe, of which Britain would be a part, with Brussels
as the capital. There will be a President of Europe and a European
Government; the European Parliament will make laws and the European
Court will give rulings. Britain will be a province of Europe, as
it was in Roman times long ago. It is therefore vital to understand
the nature and characteristics of the EU, to know what sort of
entity it is.
The purpose of this book is to contribute towards such an
understanding by scrutinizing the Union from the constitutional and
legal angle. It looks, for instance, at whether the European Court
behaves as a court ought to behave; at the problems caused by the
vague and elastic nature of Community law; at whether the division
of power between the Union and the Member States is based on any
sort of principle, and, if so, whether that principle is
consistently applied; at me enforcement of Community law and the
problems caused by the different levels of compliance in different
Member States; and, finally, at the issue of whether Member States
have ceded their sovereignty. These issues raise questions which we
must ask, and try to answer.
This book will be of interest not only to experts in Community
law, but to all lawyers -- indeed, to non-lawyers as well -- who
want to understand the Community. To make this possible, an
introductory chapter has been added to provide the necessary
background.
