Offering a fresh view on the EU constitutionalisation process, the new edition of The Tangled Complexity of the EU Constitutional Process presents three main points: the idea of constitutional complexity, the tension between constitutional evolutionism and constitutional constructivism in the process of European integration, and the functional nature of conflicts in the evolution of the EU. Because of its prodigiousness, European law produces consternation among constitutionalists accustomed to traditional patterns of power.
This book argues that while constitutional conflicts have frequently been depicted as elements of disturbance along the path towards legal coherence, they are physiological and might even be functional to the development of the European legal order, which should not be understood in a deterministic manner.
The new edition will be of particular interest to academics and students in the disciplines of law, international relations, and political science.
"I fully recommend this book which I believe is a must-read in the field of EU constitutional law. The volume is based on sound research and methodology and the conclusions developed by Martinico are very innovative. Martinico does not only focus on past cases and trans-legal constitutional conflicts since he also foresees future situations of interpretive disagreement" .-Luis I. Gordillo University of Deusto, Bilbao
"This is an ambitious and rich book which offers an original analytical framework to understand the European integration process. This is undoubtedly a work full of original proposals and a must-read for scholars who approach the European Union as a peculiar juridical entity." Prof Gianpaolo Maria Ruotolo, University of Foggia
