About this book

In substance Europe's legal order is in many senses constitutional - especially in that it demands a constitutional discipline and loyalty in the legal requirements it makes vis-a-vis member State branches of government: vis-a-vis legislatures it insists on supremacy, vis-a-vis courts it insists on direct effect and vis-a-vis governments it abolishes reciprocity, counter measures, the principal artifacts of State responsibility, namely, the classical pacific instruments of government in international relations.
