Hart Publishing is publishing a new book on the
Draft European Constitution “with the benefit of hindsight”.
ABOUT THE BOOK
The Draft
European Constitution was arguably both an attempt to constitutionalise the
Union, re-framing that project in the language of the state, and an attempt to
stretch the boundaries of constitutionalism itself, re-imagining that concept
to accommodate the sui generis European Union. The (partial)
failure of this project is the subject of this collection of essays. The
collection brings together leading EU constitutional scholars to consider, with
the benefit of hindsight, the purportedly constitutional character of the
proposed Constitutional Treaty, the reasons for its rejection by voters in
France and the Netherlands, the ongoing implications of this episode for the
European project, and the lessons it teaches us about what constitutionalism
really means.
