19029-01 - Lecture with practical courses: Basic Course in EU Law (4 CP)
| Semester | fall semester 2011 |
| Course frequency | Every fall sem. |
| Lecturers | Christa Tobler (christa.tobler@unibas.ch, Assessor) |
| Content | This course considers the constitutional and institutional aspects of the European Union (EU). In its most famous judgment, Van Gend en Loos of 1963, the European Court of Justice stated that "the Community constitutes a new legal order of International Law". What made the then European Economic Community (and now the EU) so special? How did the original three Communities develop into the larger EU? How does the EU work? The course deals with the following issues: development and structure of the EU, constitutional aspects, primacy and direct effect of EU law, institutions of the EU, the making of secondary legislation and the Court’s important role in developing EU law. |
