Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Cultural Studies - European Studies, grade: 1,4, Maastricht University, language: English, abstract: This paper examines to what extent the EU member states (MS) were able to influence the EU’s role during the trade negotiations with South Africa and, thus, objected the exclusivity of the European Commission in the respective policy domain stipulated by Art. G(113(3)) TEU . The powerful position of the EU within the context of the TDCA negotiations presents a good opportunity to investigate the impact of the MS during this process. Hence, the first chapter outlines the concept of actorness coined by Jupille and Caporaso (1998) which serves as the analytical framework for this paper. The authors defined four aspects of the capacity of the Union to act which are applied to the EU in the field of study: recognition, authority, autonomy and cohesion. The second chapter presents a thorough analysis of the EU’s capacity to act on the bilateral level of trade negotiations, in particular the TDCA with South Africa. Here, special focus is placed on the involvement of the MS to evaluate the extent to which the Common Commercial Policy is dealt with by EU institutions exclusively. Lastly, the conclusion summarizes the findings allowing an assessment of the extent to which the legally prescribed sole decision power in the EU’s trade policy was in fact apparent in the process of negotiating the TDCA.

Download or read book Common Commercial Policy after Lisbon written by Marc Bungenberg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of the process of European integration the EU Common Commercial Policy (CCP) has been one of the most dynamic political fields. The EU has achieved a leading role among the economic superpowers and is regarded as a single economic area in which the EU speaks also on behalf of its Member States for most aspects of external economic politics. This volume analyzes the implications of the Treaty of Lisbon for the Common Commercial Policy of the EU. The Lisbon Treaty has declared all matters concerning external commercial policy as exclusive competences of the EU. Which consequences does this have for the Member States of the EU? With regard to institutional modifications, the Lisbon Treaty has significantly strengthened the role of the European Parliament and has substantially changed the role of the ‘High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy’ (HR). Further topics of this volume are the new normative framework of the CCP, inter alia the linkage of the CCP to the general objectives for the EU’s external actions and its dependence on secondary legislation, as well as investment policy now being part of the CCP.

Download or read book Competence to conclude international investment agreements Exclusive to the European Union or vested in Member States written by Thomas Obersteiner and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2010-12-20 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: Sehr Gut (Very Good), 1, University of Vienna (Institut für Europarecht, Internationales Recht und Rechtsvergleichung), course: Diploma-Seminar in European Union Law, language: English, abstract: The scope of the new Common Commercial Policy covers competence to conclude general obligations on the liberalization of capital transfer with relation to FDI and establishment. It is not limited to the market access phase. However, provisions concerning portfolio investment and minority participations in enterprises are not covered. It remains uncertain whether the new wording enables the EU to include policies to protect against expropriation and dispute-settlement clauses in its agreements. Although the Reform Treaty confers considerable competences to the EU, major parts of common Bilateral Investment Treaties do not fall within the scope of the new CCP. Hence, the Member States may continue to conclude their own specific agreements while the EU obtains more flexibility in negotiations and strengthens its position on the international scene. Additionally, the Lisbon Treaty slightly strengthens the power of the European Parliament.

Download or read book Between Compliance and Particularism written by Marton Varju and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines how the interests of the member states, which provide the primary driving force for developments in European integration, are internalised and addressed by the law of the European Union. In this context, member state interests are taken to mean the policy considerations, economic calculations, local socio-cultural factors, and the raw expressions of political will which shape EU policies and determine member state responses to the obligations arising from those policies. The book primarily explores the junctions and disjunctions between member state interests defined in such a manner and EU law, where the latter expresses either an obligation for the member states to comply with common policies or an acceptance of member state particularism under the common EU framework.

This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 1,0 (A), Diplomatic Academy of Vienna - School of International Studies (International Law and EU Law), course: External Economic Relations and Foreign Policy of the European Union, language: English, abstract: The aim of this seminar paper will be to firstly give an overview of the role of investment treaties in general, followed by a retrospective on the legal situation of the foreign direct investments (FDI) prior the Treaty of Lisbon (TOL) and an analysis of the current legal framework. Based on primary and secondary sources, the scope of the Union’s exclusive FDI competence of Art. 206/207 TFEU will be inquired as well as questions of legal implementation centred on the issue of financial responsibility within ISDS. By addressing the legal status of the Bilateral Investment Treaties (BIT) concluded by MS the legal basis is set to analyse the Austrian Nigerian Agreement for the Promotion and Protection of Investment which was authorized by the Commission (COM)and concluded by the Republic of Austria in 2013. In this context it will be interesting to assess the potential for the template of this agreement to become a kind of EU-third country model BIT to be concluded by the Union and to which extent the content of the agreement would be covered by the Unions FDI competence. With the entering into force of the TOL the European Union was massively changed in order to take on the challenges that lie ahead in the future. Among many of those institutional changes, the powers of the Union in the field of investments have been enlarged, with FDI now being part of the Common Commercial Policy (CCP). The motivation for such a an empowerment is manifold, reaching from FDI attraction and facilitation both important for European economic growth, the establishment of a level playing field for investors, to the beneficial effect of an increased negotiation leverage. Four years have passed since the new FDI competence has been established and on the face of it not much has been achieved. Only one piece of regulation addressing questions of legal implementation has been adopted. Exclusive EU Free Trade Agreements (FTA) containing comprehensive investment provisions are still to be concluded. Nevertheless a lot of preparatory work has been conducted by the COM and the European Parliament (EP). Of course the academic debate regarding the scope of the competence is vivid as well as the other obstacles regarding the legal implementation, mainly in the field of Investor to State Dispute Settlement (ISDS).
Download or read book The International Legal Responsibility of the European Union in the Context of the World Trade Organization in Areas of Non Conferred Competences written by Plarent Ruka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focuses on the EU’s participation in the Dispute Settlement Proceedings (DSP) of the WTO for matters of non-conferred competences. The underlying thesis is that the joint membership of the EU and its Member States is fallacious, in that it could cause the EU to become responsible for violations of the WTO regulations on the part of the Member States. Such fallacies are rooted in the blurred nature of the distribution of powers in the EU polity.In order to tackle the issue of international responsibility, the analysis is based on the facts of a real-world case. Based on the tenets of public international law, the law of mixed agreements and the EU constitutional principles, the book puts forward a model for the EU’s participation in the DSP, and for the reallocation of burdens to the respective responsible entity. This proposition deconstructs the joint responsibility regime and endorses a solution that could address the issue of responsibility in mixed agreements without a declaration of powers.
