Tatjana Evas Boeken

Focusing on the interplay of legal norms in the European Union, this work explores how to achieve a balanced and legitimate legal system. It features a comprehensive database of national court judgments from Latvia and Estonia between 2004 and 2009, along with a thorough comparative analysis of constitutional and supreme court decisions. Additionally, it sheds light on the jurisprudence of ordinary national courts, making it a valuable resource for legal scholars and political scientists interested in courts and legal frameworks.

The evolving European Union brings up vital questions about where democracy is heading. The book contributes to this discussion by offering critical appraisals and constructive propositions by eminent experts engaging with the novel configuration of “multilayered representation”. Key issues are the “European Multilevel Parliamentary Field”, the role of European Jurisprudence for representation, and the emerging European public sphere.
