Who's Afraid of a European Constitution?

by Neil MacCormick

Overview

In this short but authoritative book, the nature and purpose of the European Constitution are explained by someone involved in its preparation. The author discusses how it was drafted, and tackles some much debated questions: whether it promises any enhancement of democracy in the EU, whether it implies that the EU is becoming a superstate, and whether it will strengthen the principle of subsidiarity and the protection of human rights.

Editorial Reviews

"This book is written in such an accessible style that those with a passing curiosity should find it informative. Those already familiar with the heavy tomes on EC and EU law should find this book both entertaining and thought provoking."

Scolag Journal - Maria O'Neill

"As always, MacCormac is a pleasure to read. His writing can be praised for its clarity and succictness ... Who's afriad of a European Constitution? is a manifesto for the draft constitution, appealing in particular to the eurosceptic voter."
