Zusammenfassung

Die EU befindet sich in einer Krise der Rechtsstaatlichkeit, die Gegenstand vielfältiger Konflikte zwischen der EU und einigen ihrer Mitgliedstaaten ist. Während viele Analysen der Krise einen juristischen Blickwinkel einnehmen, erweitert dieser Band den Fokus und vervielfältigt die Perspektiven, indem er Ansichten aus verschiedenen Disziplinen, Ländern und von außerhalb der Wissenschaft mit einem empirischen Schwerpunkt auf Deutschland, Polen und der Tschechischen Republik innerhalb der EU zusammenbringt. Die Analysen liefern den Leser:innen viel wertvolles Wissen über Rechtsstaatlichkeit und richterliche Unabhängigkeit in den untersuchten Ländern. Mit Beiträgen vonDr. Lisa H.
