Structural Principles of EU Law

Marcus Klamert

Marcus Klamert is Professor at the Institute for European Law at the University of Graz, Austria.

This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the principles shaping EU law: autonomy, conferral, equality, national identity, loyalty, solidarity, supremacy, and effectiveness.

 Much has been written about principles of EU law inspired by national law, such as fundamental rights, but what of the principles that are specific to EU law? The book discusses the origins of the EU’s structural principles, where they are located, and how they are applied in practice. The author proposes that these principles are deeply interrelated and ensure the legal unity and uniformity of EU law. Their role in the EU's external relations is also explored.
