Red Globe Press - The Court of Justice of the EU and Politics

Explore the significant role of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in the context of European integration. As one of the most powerful international courts in existence, the CJEU serves as a central institution within the EU framework. This book examines how the court acts as a key actor in world affairs during a period when political systems globally are becoming more judicialized. Readers will gain insights into the court's dual identity as both a legal interpreter and a political force. The text addresses the complexities of how the CJEU influences policy-making through its case law. It also covers the growing debates and criticisms regarding the court's perceived activism and its relationship with the European Union. This volume is an essential resource for understanding the intersection of law and politics in the modern era.
