Concluding Remarks 330 8 $aConstitutions serve to delineate state powers and enshrine basic rights. Such matters are hardly uncontroversial, but perhaps even more controversial are the questions of who (should) uphold(s) the Constitution and how constitutional review is organised. These two questions are the subject of this book by Maartje de Visser, which offers a comprehensive, comparative analysis of how 11 representative European countries answer these questions, as well as a critical appraisal of the EU legal order in light of these national experiences. Where possible, the book endeavours to identify Europe's common and diverse constitutional traditions of constitutional review. The raison d'e?tre, jurisdiction and composition of constitutional courts are explored and so too are core features of the constitutional adjudicatory process. Yet, this book also deliberately draws attention to the role of non-judicial actors in upholding the Constitution, as well as the complex interplay amongst constitutional courts and other actors at the national and European level. The Member States featured are: Belgium, the Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Hungary, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, and the United Kingdom. This book is intended for practitioners, academics and students with an interest in (European) constitutional law 410 0$aEuropean and national constitutional law series. 606 $aConstitutional courts$zEuropean Union countries 606 $2Constitutional & administrative law 606 $aConstitutional law$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aJudicial review$zEuropean Union countries 615 0$aConstitutional courts 615 0$aConstitutional law 615 0$aJudicial review 676 $a342.4 700 $aDe Visser$b Maartje$01487293 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789400203321 996 $aConstitutional review in Europe$93707087 997 $aUNINA
