About the Book

The notion of a European constitution has until recently received unfavourable reactions within the European Union with controversy surrounding its political and legal implications. Criticism has largely revolved around the threat of an emerging European federal state. Today, however, constitution-building has become a major point of debate among members of the European Community as the drafting of a European constitution becomes more imminent. European Constitutionalism Beyond the State brings together some of the most innovative scholars in the field to highlight different facets of the new constitutional discussion. Provoking deep analysis of the different ideas of constitution and constitutionalism, the book delineates new ways of thinking about the future of Europe. In particular, it aims to challenge the idea of the European Union as an evolving federal polity. This book will appeal to anyone interested in the timely subject of constitutionalism including students and practitioners of law, politics and philosophy.

Review :
'The contributors to this volume do not disappoint ... there is much here for European public lawyers to reflect on.' Public Law '... great merit ... avoids becoming entangled in the ever changing details of the reform process ... sheds light on the deeper problems and challenges of European constitutionalism ... still relevant ...' International Journal of Constitutional Law
