The Principle of Subsidiarity and its Enforcement in the EU Legal Order Summary

The Principle of Subsidiarity and its Enforcement in the EU Legal Order: The Role of National Parliaments in the Early Warning System by Dr Katarzyna Granat (Durham University)

In this book, Katarzyna Granat analyses and evaluates Europe's experience with the Early Warning System (EWS) which allows national parliaments to review draft legislative acts of the European Union for their compatibility with the subsidiarity principle. The EWS was introduced in response to the perceived 'democratic deficit' of the EU and its 'creeping' competences, and represented one of the landmark reforms of the Lisbon Treaty. The purpose of this book is to present and critically analyse the functioning of the new mechanism of subsidiarity review and the role that national parliaments have played within this system. Compared to the existing leading publications on the Europeanisation of national parliaments and contributions on the EU principle of subsidiarity, this book offers - for the first time - a profound legal analysis of the procedure enriched by a comprehensive empirical analysis of the activities of national parliaments. It is directed at scholars of EU law and policy, European and national officials, and legal practitioners working in and with the national legislatures.

The Principle of Subsidiarity and its Enforcement in the EU Legal Order Reviews

Katarzyna Granat's analysis is particularly thorough and addresses numerous aspects of the functioning of the EWS... Granat manages to successfully uncover several dimensions of this issue which had thus far not been examined... The issues considered in the last three chapters - principle of conferral, delegation of powers and fundamental rights - are also particularly original and will undoubtedly be useful for anyone looking at the EWS from now on. These are all but a few of the aspects that should invite scholars interested in parliamentary democracy within the EU to read this monograph. -- Diane Fromage * Rivista di Diritti Comparati *
The evolving role of national parliaments in the EU has led to a wealth of academic literature in recent decades. In this crowded field, Granat's analysis of the early warning mechanism is able to add value and originality, due to its rigorous doctrinal analysis of the reasoned opinions submitted by national parliaments. -- Andrew Woodhouse * Common Market Law Review *
Granat's work has significant strengths. Primarily it boasts a remarkable empirical richness, providing the reader with ample footnotes and concrete examples of early warning system applications... Throughout the book, Granat's investigative reasoning is logical and easy to follow. Her comprehensive analysis on each different facet of the early warning system and subsidiarity is truly impressive. -- Thomas Larue * Journal of Common Market Studies *
