The European Union after Lisbon. Constitutional basis, economic order and external action

This volume aims to analyse the constitutional basis of the European Union and the normative orientation of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (TEU) as well as the central economic and monetary provisions (TFEU) after the Reform Treaty of Lisbon. Its development was accompanied by two Conferences in Erfurt (2008) and Rome (2010) which the editors have organised in preparation for the project of a European Commentary on the Treaty of Lisbon. As an outcome of a European research compound, which is composed of authors from eight Member States, the publication underlines the aspiration of the editors to thoroughly analyse the constitutional law of the European Union currently in force.
