Refusing to believe that political constraints outweigh political possibilities in the present historical conjuncture, I argue that the time is ripe for the disentanglement of Eurozenship from Member State nationality. Since the mid-1990s I have defended this reform. But my argument for an autonomous Eurozenship in this debate unfolds in two steps which are presented in the subsequent two sections. In the first section, I explore the incremental disentanglement of EU citizenship from the nationality law of Member States, while in the second section I reconstruct Eurozenship, that is, I present the configuration of an autonomous EU citizenship law which can co-exist with EU citizenship cum Member State nationality.

Krise, Kritik und Globaler Konstitutionalismus
Globaler Konstitutionalismus ist etwas für Optimisten, zumal in Zeiten wie diesen. Kritische Reflexion tut not, und die Gelegenheit dazu erhielt der globale Konstitutionalismus letzte Woche bei einem außergewöhnlich prominent besetzten Workshop, den das Center for Global Constitutionalism beim WZB gemeinsam mit der Humboldt-Universität und dem Frankfurter "Normative-Orders"-Cluster in Berlin veranstaltet hat.

Turning EU Citizenship into a Viable Tool of EU Federalism
Dozens of years after the European Economic Community turned into the European Union, we are (still) speaking of the EU as an economic organisation. The Internal Market, which was one among many in a potential palette of the tools of integration became seemly the only tool . The Union has moved on from the customs union and the four types of free movement: it is about so much more now, compared even with 20 years ago. To present the Internal Market as the only tool of European Integration is thus most probably wrong. Yet, what should the alternatives be? What else can be deployed to underpin the core of EU integration next to the internal market? It is to respond to this question that a number of leading scholars on EU citizenship gathered in Oslo on September 13–14, 2013.

Transnational Justice meets Global Constitutionalism
Last monday I had the priviledge to moderate a roundtable discussion at Hamburg University among Rainer Forst and four of the five editors of the journal Global Constitutionalism - Antje Wiener, James Tully, Anthony Lang and Mattias Kumm - about Forst's theory of transnational justice in the context of global constitutionalism. The discussion was lively and fascinating. Here's the video.
