Introduced by the Amsterdam Treaty, this tool of flexible integration was not used until 2010. In The Constitutional Framework for Enhanced Cooperation in EU Law , Robert Böttner analyses the primary-law framework of this flexibility tool. On the basis of profound literature review and against the background of recent Member State practice, the author redefines the constitutional rules of Enhanced Cooperation. He draws conclusions on this tool's legal limits, but also its potential for European integration.Nijhoff studies in EU law ;Volume 17.LawEuropean Union countriesConstitutional lawEuropean Union countriesEuropeEconomic integrationLawConstitutional law341.2422Böttner Robertaut970623MiAaPQMiAaPQUtOrBLWBOOK9910810574003321Constitutional framework for enhanced cooperation in EU law3926945UNINA
