Description

The planned enlargement of the EU requires constitutional reforms both at EU level and in the accession states. In this second volume of the Forum Constitutionis Europae series, renowned constitutional and European law experts as well as prominent European politicians analyze and comment on this reform process. On the question of institutional reform and the European constitutional process as a whole, the volume contains, among other things, Joschka Fischer's keynote speech on European policy from May 12, 2000, as well as contributions by Joseph H. H. Weiler, Christoph Zöpel and Dietrich von Kyaw. Michaele Schreyer (financial constitution), Dagmar Roth-Behrendt and Ludwig Krämer (environmental constitution) and Martin Morlok (European party law) analyze challenges for individual European constitutional areas. Günther Hirsch and Spiros Simitis deal with the emerging EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. Vilenos Vadapalas (Lithuania) and Jirí Zemánek (Czech Republic) analyze the effects of the accession process on the constitutional law of the accession states. The volume is based on a series of lectures at the Humboldt University in Berlin. A third volume is expected to appear in spring 2001.
