lecturer in EU law, European Institute and Department of Law
London School of Economics and Political Science, Houghton Street, WC2A 2AE, London,
United Kingdom
Research Interests:
I am interested in the role of judicial institutions in the European integration and theories of
European constitutionalism in general. Contrary to some lawyers, I am not excited by “many
interesting things you could do with the law”, but rather the limitations of law and legal
institutions – things that cannot be achieved by them. Examining such questions involves
comparative institutional analysis and the “legal process school” approach, which takes
inspiration from the work of constitutional scholars in the United States.
