Laurent Pech: EU Rule of Law Casebook

EU Rule of Law Casebook

Code of Federal Regulations, Title 50 Wildlife and Fisheries

Code of Federal Regulations, Title 50 Wildlife and Fisheries 17.95(b), Revised as of October 1, 2023

Key Ideas in Law

This book explores several key ideas relating to the 'principle of legality'. In the United Kingdom, the 'principle of legality' is an interpretive tool applied by courts to legislation that is deemed to be unclear. The term is used as shorthand for both the idea that Parliament may only override fundamental legal or constitutional norms using clear legislation. It also encapsulates the idea that courts can 'read down' or narrow the effect of general or ambiguous legislation to protect fundamental common law norms. These deceptively simple notions have a rich and complex historical pedigree. Since the end of the twentieth century, a 'breach of the principle of legality' has become a discrete ground of judicial review rooted in the common law. But its status, definition, and reach all remain deeply contested. In recent years, recourse to 'the principle of legality' in public law claims has become increasingly controversial. As the corpus of case law has grown, the application of the 'principle of legality' has been identified by judges, academics, and politicians as both a source of legal uncertainty in its own right, and a vehicle for potential judicial overreach. By building on a rigorous analysis of relevant case law, this book considers the intellectual foundations of 'the principle of legality'. As the analysis unfolds, we will see that there is no singular 'principle of legality' which we can accurately pinpoint. Instead, it makes sense to talk about multiple principles of legality, doing distinct, but related, work. This becomes apparent when we explore the history of the principles of legality in the context of not just public law, but the wider legal system. Moving beyond the historical context, the book explores where and how the principles of legality apply in the contemporary legal system. Subsequent chapters explore the difficulties and uncertainties of determining whether the principles of legality are engaged. Thereafter, attention turns to what norms legality does and does not protect and how courts decide upon this. The final chapter sets the principles of legality in their broader constitutional context. Overall, it will demonstrate that concerns about relating to judicial overreach are overstated. In fact, the reverse is true: the application of the principles of legality do introduce a dimension of legal uncertainty, but ultimately fall short of their constitutional potential.

Hart Studies in Comparative Public Law

This book represents a unique contribution to comparative legal studies by presenting the results of an empirical research project on the use of foreign precedents in constitutional interpretation in 31 jurisdictions worldwide. It expands and updates the outcomes presented in the previous successful book The Use of Foreign Precedents by Constitutional Judges, edited by Tania Groppi and Marie-Claire Ponthoreau and published in 2013 as Volume 1 of the series Hart Studies in Comparative Public Law. This new research, covering countries from all the continents, with special attention to some of the emerging jurisdictions of the Global South, confirms that the practice of making explicit use of foreign precedents is still limited both quantitatively and qualitatively. Judicial dialogue only exists in common law jurisdictions and, even there, 'judicial bricolage' is much more common than 'judicial comparativism'. Since the previous edition, this practice has gone hand in hand with new developments in constitutional law, such as the democratic erosion and backsliding, the emergence of populist movements, the increasing role of regional human rights courts, which in many cases overshadowed foreign sources, and the end of a global vision of constitutionalism. Applying a quantitative and a qualitative analysis, with the support of tables and data, the book gives a more complete picture of the practice of citing foreign precedents in this new and challenging era, resulting in essential reading for comparative and constitutional legal scholars.
