CATHERINE DWYER

 

CLASS: EUROPEAN UNION LAW (Course Number 568 - Section 246)

Reading Assignment for First Class

SEE EITHER TWEN SITE FOR COURSE OR PDF OF SYLLABUS for course texts and abbreviations. 

 

Assignment for Class One: After a discussion of class policies and procedures we will cover Topic 1 and begin Topic 2 during the first class.  Read BGDF  xvii-xxiii and 3-74.  Skim the Treaty Establishing the European Community and the Treaty on European Union, the two treaties with which the book is primarily involved (found in Supp 4-164).  In the 2004 Supp take note of the additions to Chapter 2 of the Text and Supp (pages 15-34)

 

Topic 1 Brief History and Development of the European Union: From EEC to EU

Objective: We will briefly trace the historical development from a European Economic Community towards a fully-fledged European Union.  There have been a series of changes throughout the treaties following (Single European Act, the Treaty on European Union, the Treaty of Amsterdam and the Treaty of Nice) which will be discussed.  The so-called “pillar structure” introduced by the Treaty on European Union and the changes to this structure in the Treaty of Amsterdam will be analyzed.

Readings: 

 

Topic 2 The Institutions

Objective: Article 7 of the EC Treaty mentions five principal institutions which are entrusted with carrying out the tasks of the Community: the Council, the Commission, the European Parliament, the Court of Auditors and the Court of Justice.  In this topic we shall discuss the role which each of these institutions plays and the way in which they interrelate.  It is important in this context to realize that the Community does not conform to any rigid separation-of-posers doctrine of the type which has shaped many domestic political systems.  It is therefore impossible to describe any one of the institutions as the sole legislator or the sole executive.  Furthermore, it should be noted that the institutional balance within the Community is not static but dynamic.  It has changed as a result of the subsequent Treaty revisions discussed in the previous topic.  In particular, the role played by the European Parliament in policy making has evolved considerably over the years.
