Glad to see that 'The Currency of Solidarity: Constitutional Transformation during the Euro Crisis' has been published with @CUPAcademic. The book examines the constitutional change experienced by the EU at the height of the euro crisis (I)

France calls a second emergency Paris Summit on Ukraine today with EU leaders, Norway and Canada. Can these spontaneous summits help Europe find its voice in a time of crisis? 🤔 📖 Read our op-ed by @VestertBorger & @LuukvMiddelaar ⤵️ big-europe.eu/publications/2…

Inspiring 'Governing Through Funding in the EU' @CUP_Law book discussions over 3 panels convened w/@MarijnvdSluis @ICON__S Madrid. Stay tuned for the book & events! @lawinmaastricht @MaastrichtEUlaw @AntoniaBaraggia @teobone @M_Eliantonio @DerminePaul @EmiliaKorkeaaho

Deze strijd over Europa’s toekomstige vorm gaat aan velen in de Tweede Kamer voorbij. Een meerderheid houdt stug vast aan het beeld van de EU als gedepolitiseerd construct. Dat staat haaks op de ontwikkeling die het Europese bestel de afgelopen halve eeuw heeft doorgemaakt. 5/5

Nu de formatie zich in de eindfase bevindt, en met de Europese verkiezingen in aantocht, verscheen vandaag in @DeGroene een essay van @LuukvMiddelaar en mij over de innige verwevenheid van nationale en Europese politiek. l1nq.com/5H5DX Een draadje🧵1/5

From the December issue: @VestertBorger (@EULeiden) annotates Cases C-156 and 157/21, Hungary and Poland v. Parliament and Council: "Constitutional identity, the #ruleoflaw, and the power of the purse: The ECJ approves the #conditionality mechanism". kluwerlawonline.com/journalarticle…

The case note builds on previous work by, amongst others, @ProfPech, @JMorijn, @KimLaneLaw, @rdanielkelemen, @RehlingLarsen, @teobone, @ld_spieker, @WojSadurski, @LuukvMiddelaar, @ProfKochenov For the whole case note, see: tinyurl.com/2akznr6d 4/4

Crucially, the CJEU for the first time pronounced on Europe’s constitutional identity, a constitutional core which the EU should be able to protect in federal struggles, now and in the future, over founding values 3/4

Happy to see my case note on the judgment of @EUCourtPress on the conditionality mechanism published in the @CMLRev. The judgment not just approves the mechanism’s legality, but touches on the very fundamentals of the EU as a constitutional polity. 1/4

Indeed a great start of our new Meet the Author event series. Many thanks to @LjupchoILS for enlightening us about algorithmic discrimination and EU law. @MelanieFink1 @EULeiden @LeidenLaw

Yes👇: very honoured and really looking forward to working on this project with @VestertBorger. Grasping the EU’s informal constitution as it changes in the turmoil of events.
