Revisiting the Registration of European Citizens’ Initiatives: The Evolution of the Legal Admissibility Test 重新审视欧洲公民倡议的登记:法律可接受性测试的演变

Abstract According to the main element of the legal admissibility test of the European Citizens’ Initiative (‘ECI’) set out in Regulation 211/2011, a proposed ECI cannot collect signatures of support if it ‘manifestly falls outside the framework of the Commission’s powers to submit a proposal for a legal act of the Union for the purpose of implementing the Treaties’. This contribution argues that the interpretation and application of the ECI legal admissibility test has developed since the early years of the ECI’s operation, largely due to the CJEU’s intervention in ECI-cases. It analyses the procedural and substantive changes to the test in light of the relevant litigation and the ongoing reform of the ECI’s legal framework. It illustrates that certain contested procedural aspects of the ECI legal admissibility test have been resolved, while the scope of the ECI has been extended to allow Initiatives in the field of international agreements. The article explores the effects of these developments on current and future ECI practice, including the possibility to bring an ECI in the context of the EU-UK Brexit negotiations.
根据法规211/2011规定的欧洲公民倡议(“ECI”)法律可采性测试的主要要素,如果提议的ECI“明显超出了欧盟委员会为实施条约而提交欧盟法律行为提案的权力框架”,则不能收集支持签名。这篇文章认为,ECI法律可采性测试的解释和应用自ECI运作的早期以来一直在发展,主要是由于欧洲法院对ECI案件的干预。它根据相关诉讼和正在进行的ECI法律框架改革,分析了测试的程序和实质性变化。它表明,ECI法律可采性检验的某些有争议的程序方面已得到解决,而ECI的范围已扩大到允许在国际协定领域提出倡议。本文探讨了这些发展对当前和未来ECI实践的影响,包括在欧盟-英国脱欧谈判背景下引入ECI的可能性。

Europe’s ‘Other’ Open-Border Zone: The Common Travel Area under the Shadow of Brexit 欧洲的“其他”开放边境区:英国脱欧阴影下的共同旅游区

Abstract In recent years, the Schengen Area—and the suppression within its territory of border controls—has become a strong focus of attention. This article focuses on another region of Europe where such controls have been suppressed: the Common Travel Area (‘CTA’). Historically, both Ireland and the United Kingdom have rejected membership of the Schengen system—albeit securing certain ‘opt-in’ rights—and instead maintained the CTA between their respective jurisdictions. The CTA has, however, garnered relatively little public attention until recently, when concerns as to the implications of Brexit for the maintenance of an open border between Ireland and Northern Ireland have gained ground, and threatened to be a deal breaker in the negotiations under Article 50 TEU on UK exit from the EU (‘Brexit’). This article examines the background to the CTA, exploring its surprisingly fluid legal framework; its development in the legal systems of Ireland and the United Kingdom; and subsequently, how it was exempted from what is now EU law as the Schengen arrangements were integrated into the Union. The recent introduction of the British-Irish Visa Scheme, which formalises some visa rules regarding citizens of third states, and which tends in the direction of consolidating CTA arrangements, is also examined. The article further explores the challenges that confront the CTA in coping with the outcome of the June 2016 Brexit referendum, which should result in the UK leaving the European Union in March 2019, and the implications of Brexit for the CTA. Finally, it seeks to identify some key characteristics of the CTA in light of experience to date.
摘要近年来,申根区及其境内边境管制的镇压已成为人们关注的焦点。这篇文章关注的是欧洲另一个此类控制被抑制的地区:共同旅行区(“TA”)。从历史上看,爱尔兰和英国都拒绝加入申根体系——尽管确保了某些“选择加入”的权利——而是在各自的司法管辖区之间维持CTA。然而,直到最近,英国脱欧对维护爱尔兰和北爱尔兰之间开放边界的影响引起了公众的关注,并有可能破坏根据第50条标准箱就英国退出欧盟(“脱欧”)进行的谈判。本文考察了CTA的背景,探讨了其令人惊讶的流动性法律框架;其在爱尔兰和联合王国法律体系中的发展;随后,随着申根安排融入欧盟,它如何被免除现在的欧盟法律的约束。最近引入的英国-爱尔兰签证计划也受到了审查,该计划正式制定了一些关于第三国公民的签证规则,并倾向于巩固CTA安排。文章进一步探讨了CTA在应对2016年6月英国脱欧公投结果时面临的挑战,该公投将导致英国于2019年3月脱离欧盟,以及脱欧对CTA的影响。最后,它试图根据迄今为止的经验来确定CTA的一些关键特征。

The Impact of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights on Anti-Discrimination Law: More a Whimper than a Bang? 《欧盟基本权利宪章》对反歧视法的影响:与其说是一声呜咽,不如说是一声巨响?
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-19 DOI: 10.1017/CEL.2018.11

Abstract This article explores the influence of Articles 20 and 21 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union in the development of EU equal treatment law, with emphasis on forms of discrimination precluded by Council Directive 2000/43 implementing the principle of equal treatment between persons irrespective of racial or ethnic origin, and Directive 2000/78 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation. The author contends that although Articles 20 and 21 are primary measure of EU law, their impact in the development of case law elaborated pursuant to the Directives is relatively muted. This may have stunted the development of jurisprudence on the relationship between Articles 20 and 21 of the Charter, and rules contained in Title VI of the Charter governing its interpretation and application, such as Article 52(3) on the relationship between the Charter and the European Convention on Human Rights, and Article 52(1) on justified limitations. The author forewarns against the emergence of incoherence in the case law in this context, and with respect to the role of Articles 20 and 21 in disputes over the meaning of Directives 2000/43 and 2000/78 and calls for fuller reflection on Charter rules in disputes based on an allegation of discrimination.
摘要本文探讨了《欧洲联盟基本权利宪章》第20条和第21条对制定欧盟平等待遇法的影响,重点是理事会第2000/43号指令所排除的歧视形式,该指令执行了不分种族或族裔的人与人之间平等待遇的原则,以及第2000/78号指令,建立了就业和职业平等待遇的一般框架。提交人认为,尽管第20条和第21条是欧盟法律的主要措施,但它们对根据《指令》制定的判例法的影响相对较小。这可能阻碍了关于《宪章》第二十条和第二十一条之间关系的判例法的发展,也阻碍了关于解释和适用《宪章》的第六章所载规则的发展,例如关于《宪章与欧洲人权公约》之间关系的第五十二条第三款和关于正当限制的第五十二(一)款。提交人警告说,在这种情况下,判例法中出现了不连贯的情况,以及第20条和第21条在关于第2000/43号和第2000/78号指令含义的争端中的作用,并呼吁在基于歧视指控的争端中更充分地考虑《宪章》的规则。

Pluralism in European Private Law 欧洲私法中的多元主义
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-11-13 DOI: 10.1017/cel.2018.5
V. Mak
Abstract This article takes stock of legal pluralist thinking in European private law. In which ways have existing theories brought forward our understanding of lawmaking in European private law? Central to that debate are the competing rationalities of EU internal market law, on the one hand, and national, juridical systems of private law on the other hand. An analysis of norms, processes, and actors involved in lawmaking in European private law reveals a field that has matured, but that is now at the threshold of a re-evaluation and potentially a transformation in lawmaking from ordered to strong legal pluralism, with a greater role for private regulation.
摘要本文对欧洲私法中的法律多元主义思想进行了梳理。现有理论在哪些方面促进了我们对欧洲私法立法的理解?这场辩论的核心是欧盟内部市场法律的竞争性合理性,以及私法的国家司法体系。对欧洲私法中涉及立法的规范、程序和行动者的分析揭示了一个已经成熟的领域,但它现在正处于重新评估的门槛,并可能在立法方面从有序向强有力的法律多元主义转变,其中私人监管的作用更大。

The Existential Crisis of Citizenship of the European Union: The Argument for an Autonomous Status 欧盟公民身份的生存危机:自治地位之争
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-09-10 DOI: 10.1017/cel.2018.6

Abstract This article argues for the (re)construction of citizenship of the European Union as an autonomous status. As opposed to the current legal regime, whereby individuals with nationality of a Member State are automatically granted citizenship of the Union, under this proposal individuals would be free to choose whether or not to adopt the status of citizen of an incipient European polity. At present, the telos and essence of citizenship of the Union is contested. It may be argued that the status is partial or incomplete. This has informed competing normative perspectives. ‘Maximalist’ positions praise the judicial construction of Union citizenship as destined to be the ‘fundamental status’ for all Member State nationals. By contrast, ‘minimalist’ positions argue that the status should remain ‘additional to’ Member State nationality, and the rights created therein should remain supplementary to the status and rights derived from national citizenship. This article will argue for a new approach to the dilemma. By emancipating the condition for acquisition of EU citizenship from nationality of a Member State, and reconstructing it as an autonomous choice for individuals, it is tentatively suggested that a new constitutional settlement for Europe may be generated.
摘要本文主张(重建)欧盟公民身份作为一种自治地位。与目前拥有成员国国籍的个人自动被授予欧盟公民身份的法律制度不同,根据这一提议,个人可以自由选择是否采用欧洲初期政体的公民身份。目前,欧盟公民身份的本质和意义存在争议。可以说,这种状况是部分的或不完整的。这为相互竞争的规范观点提供了依据最高主义者的立场赞扬联邦公民身份的司法建设注定是所有成员国国民的“基本地位”。相比之下,“最低限度”的立场认为,该地位应继续“补充”成员国国籍,其中产生的权利应继续补充地位和源自国家公民身份的权利。这篇文章将为解决这一困境提出一种新的方法。通过将获得欧盟公民身份的条件从成员国国籍中解放出来,并将其重建为个人的自主选择,初步建议可以为欧洲产生新的宪法解决方案。

After ‘HLEG’: EU Banks, Climate Change Abatement and the Precautionary Principle 在“HLEG”之后:欧盟银行、气候变化减缓和预防原则

Abstract The EU is making progress in reducing its carbon footprint. The creation of a High-Level Group on Sustainable Finance has supplemented recent market-led initiatives and provided some recommendations for future reform. This article argues that more remains to be achieved. In particular, in light of the fundamental structural uncertainties attached to climate change, precautionary approaches to the funding of GHG-intensive industries are worth contemplating. Such measures include raising the capital requirements on assets with ‘brown’ credentials. The high dependence on banks for external financing in the EU makes these reforms particularly appropriate for implementation within the bloc.
摘要欧盟在减少碳足迹方面正在取得进展。可持续金融问题高级别小组的成立补充了最近由市场主导的举措,并为未来的改革提出了一些建议。这篇文章认为,还有更多的工作要做。特别是,鉴于气候变化带来的根本结构性不确定性,值得考虑为温室气体密集型行业提供资金的预防性方法。这些措施包括提高持有“棕色”证书的资产的资本要求。欧盟对银行外部融资的高度依赖使这些改革特别适合在欧盟内部实施。

A Tale of Two Cities: Fundamental Rights Protection in Strasbourg and Luxembourg 《双城记:斯特拉斯堡和卢森堡的基本权利保护》

Abstract This article tackles questions relating to the interrelationship between the European Convention on Human Rights and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, as well as the roles of the two European courts charged with their interpretation and application, by way of two case studies. The cases chosen address two very different issues—surrogacy and the right to privacy and family life on the one hand, and religious freedom and the wearing of religious symbols in the workplace on the other. On the surrogacy issue the article refers to an Irish Supreme Court case as well as case law from the Strasbourg and Luxembourg courts to illustrate how limits to the jurisdiction of the two European courts is, or is not, clearly articulated and the legal tools used when addressing sensitive legal questions of this nature. As regards the wearing of religious symbols in the workplace, the article concentrates on cases originating in the United Kingdom and France which have been examined by the Strasbourg court and highlights the similarities and differences between that case law and recent judgments of the Luxembourg court, called on, for the first time, to tackle questions of discrimination on grounds of religion with reference to EU anti-discrimination directives and the provisions of the Charter on both equality and religious freedom.
摘要本文通过两个案例研究,探讨了与《欧洲人权公约》和《欧洲联盟基本权利宪章》之间的相互关系以及负责解释和适用这两个公约的欧洲法院的作用有关的问题。所选择的案件涉及两个截然不同的问题——一方面是代孕和隐私权和家庭生活权,另一方面是宗教自由和在工作场所佩戴宗教标志。关于代孕问题,这篇文章提到了爱尔兰最高法院的一个案件以及斯特拉斯堡和卢森堡法院的判例法,以说明这两个欧洲法院的管辖权限制是如何明确规定的,或者没有明确规定,以及在解决这类性质的敏感法律问题时使用的法律工具。关于在工作场所佩戴宗教标志的问题,这篇文章集中讨论了斯特拉斯堡法院审理的源自英国和法国的案件,并强调了该判例法与卢森堡法院最近的判决之间的异同,参照欧盟反歧视指令和《宪章》关于平等和宗教自由的规定,解决基于宗教的歧视问题。

The Mythical Value of Voice and Stewardship in the EU Directive on Long-term Shareholder Engagement: Rights Do Not an Engaged Shareholder Make 欧盟长期股东参与指令中话语权和管理权的神话价值:参与股东不享有权利
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2018-07-25 DOI: 10.1017/cel.2018.8

Abstract Through the lens of assessing the likely regulatory impact of the 2017 EU Directive on Long-term Shareholder Engagement and its amendments to the 2007 Directive on Shareholder Rights, this article considers the mythical voice and stewardship role attributed by the EU to shareholders as active corporate governance gatekeepers and drivers of its long-term sustainability agenda. It identifies limitations of the Directive itself and practical challenges concerning the provisions on shareholder identification, executive pay, related party transactions, proxy advisors and shareholder engagement policies. It is argued that there is a considerable normative gap between the EU narrative of engagement and the challenge of engaging shareholders away from self-interest and rational apathy to fulfil a stewardship role.
摘要通过评估2017年《欧盟长期股东参与指令》及其对2007年《股东权利指令》的修正案可能产生的监管影响,本文认为欧盟赋予股东的神话般的话语权和管理作用是其长期可持续发展议程的积极公司治理看门人和推动者。它确定了指令本身的局限性,以及与股东身份、高管薪酬、关联方交易、代理顾问和股东参与政策有关的实际挑战。有人认为,欧盟关于参与的叙述与让股东远离自身利益和理性冷漠履行管理职责的挑战之间存在着相当大的规范性差距。

Abstract While there has been much talk of the role of parliaments and courts in the Brexit process, far less—indeed very little—has been said about the challenges facing the largest part of the UK government: the administrative branch. Whatever results from the UK’s negotiations with the EU, Brexit will likely necessitate wide-ranging and fast-paced administrative reform in the UK. In this article, we use a detailed case study of a particular part of administration—the Competition and Markets Authority (‘CMA’)—to highlight the nature and extent of the challenges facing administrative agencies. This case study is demonstrative as, while there is an extant UK competition administration structure, competition law and its enforcement are highly Europeanised. We propose that the challenges facing administrative bodies in the UK—including the CMA—can be understood as possessing three key dimensions: internal organisation issues; external coordination issues; and substantive legal issues. We argue that, in many instances, these three dimensions will be in tension which each other. That is to say, the reality of reforming administration post-Brexit will involve trade-offs between questions of internal organisation, external coordination, and substantive law.
摘要尽管人们对议会和法院在英国脱欧过程中的作用议论纷纷,但对英国政府最大部门——行政部门——面临的挑战却知之甚少。无论英国与欧盟的谈判结果如何,英国脱欧都可能需要英国进行广泛而快节奏的行政改革。在本文中,我们对行政部门的一个特定部分——竞争与市场管理局(“CMA”)进行了详细的案例研究,以强调行政机构面临的挑战的性质和程度。本案例研究表明,尽管英国现有竞争管理结构,但竞争法及其执行高度欧洲化。我们建议,包括CMA在内的英国行政机构面临的挑战可以理解为具有三个关键层面:内部组织问题;外部协调问题;以及实质性法律问题。我们认为,在许多情况下,这三个维度将彼此处于紧张状态。也就是说,英国脱欧后政府改革的现实将涉及内部组织、外部协调和实体法问题之间的权衡。
