It’s Not Propaganda If It’s True
The first casualty of war is the truth. Putin’s reasons for the invasion, like his claims of genocide in Donbas, are abstruse and lack any basis in reality. Rather than addressing the West, this national propaganda is meant to convince the Russian people of the necessity of war. Is there a possibility to correct misinformation by communicating directly to the Russian people in Russian? Continue reading >>

Der unsichtbare Dritte
Durch die Richtlinie zu Sorgfaltspflichten in der Lieferkette sollen große Unternehmen in der EU dazu verpflichtet werden, Menschenrechts- und Umweltstandards in der Lieferkette einzuhalten. Doch wer stellt sicher, dass Zulieferer, die nicht selten über die ganze Welt verteilt sind, diese Standards auch wirklich erfüllen? Der Entwurf für die Richtlinie, den die Kommission in der vergangenen Woche veröffentlicht hat, setzt dafür maßgeblich auf unabhängige Dritte: die wiederum privatwirtschaftlichen Zertifizierer. Diese Strategie fördert aber nicht nur Private als „Ersatzbehörden“, die selbst kaum reguliert sind, sondern könnte auch die Marktkonzentration ohnehin schon großer Unternehmen weiter verstärken.

Constitutional Complaint as Orbán’s Tool
The re-regulation of the ex-post review competence and the introduction of the “full” constitutional complaint in 2012 provided a good justification for the Constitutional Court to shift its focus from the control of the legislature dominated by the illiberal Fidesz government to the supervision of the judiciary. However, the justices have not remained simply deferential. They proactively helped to repurpose the constitutional complaint and convert a fundamental rights protection mechanism into a tool reinforcing the government’s interests. Continue reading >>

Crypto-assets as a blind spot in sanctions against Russia?
On 24 February 2022, Russia illegally invaded the territory of Ukraine. The international community was quick to condemn this military aggression and to issue sanctions. Missing in today's sanctions strategy, however, is the inclusion of crypto-assets. This is worrying, as it is highly likely that crypto-assets are used to fund the Russian war machine without anyone really seeing it. Continue reading >>

Zu wenig Politik in der EU-Verteidigungspolitik
Die Rüstung der Ukraine mit europäischen Mitteln mag in der europäischen Bevölkerung, die durch das ungeheuerliche Vorgehen Putins skandalisiert ist, breite Unterstützung genießen. Das darf aber nicht verdecken, dass es sich um das Ergebnis weitgehend arkaner Entscheidungsprozesse handelt: Gegenstand einer inhaltlich offenen öffentlichen Meinungs- und Willensbildung war weder die Errichtung der Europäischen Friedensfazilität noch die Durchbrechung der Unionsregeln für Rüstungsexporte durch Waffenlieferungen in das Kriegsgebiet Ukraine.

Hot War and Cold Freezes
In light of mounting pressure to take effective action against Putin, the European Commission and six states (UK, USA, Canada, Germany, France, Italy) agreed last Saturday on yet another bundle of sanctions against Russia. Some of them had been expected, like the exclusion of Russian banks from SWIFT. Others like the freezing of central bank assets came as a bit of a surprise, allegedly even for Vladimir Putin. He should have watched the news more carefully. The United States did the exact same thing to Afghan central bank assets after the Taliban takeover last year. The purpose of this note is to explore the practical and legal implications of this freeze. Continue reading >>

Cognitive Illusions in Legal Interpretation
In the light of current happenings in certain Member States, many attempt to interpret or explain the withdrawal process under Article 50 TEU. The “exit” narrative seems dominant in journalism and academia: Grexit, Dexit, Dutch Exit, Huxit, Polexit, Frexit, Sloven Exit, etc. Some news portals frequently portray (not so odd) Constitutional Court decisions or current political events as declarations of withdrawal from the EU. These simplistic approaches are battle-ready political weapons in the hands of social media influencers and politicians on both pro and con EU sides, shaping public opinion based on disinformation. This is an irresponsible mistake that misdirects public discourse. Continue reading >>

Optionen und Perspektiven eines Bundeswehr-Sondervermögens
Besondere Zeiten erfordern besondere Maßnahmen. In einer historischen Bundestagssitzung am Sonntag, den 27.2.2022, hat die Bundesregierung eine Reihe weitgreifender Maßnahmen vorgestellt, die Deutschland im Angesicht der aktuellen Weltlage zukunftsfähig machen sollen. Zur umfassenden Ertüchtigung der seit Jahren vernachlässigten Bundeswehr sollen Mittel im Umfang von 100 Mrd. Euro über ein kreditfinanziertes Sondervermögen bereitgestellt werden. Wie dies in verfassungskonformer Weise geschehen kann, wird derzeit diskutiert. Continue reading >>Wirtschaftssanktionen gegen Russland und ihre rechtlichen Grenzen
In der Dynamik der letzten Tage wurden von den USA, der Europäischen Union und anderen Staaten Sanktionen gegen Russland beschlossen, die als „beispiellos“ und „verheerend“ bezeichnet wurden. Russland spricht von „illegitimen“ Sanktionen und droht gar mit atomarer Abschreckung. Tatsächlich stehen die erlassenen Wirtschaftssanktionen auf sicherem rechtlichen Boden. Sie sind in einem gewissen Maß sogar Voraussetzung dafür, dass der Boden des Völkerrechts nicht wegbricht Continue reading >>Wird Deutschland durch Waffenlieferungen an die Ukraine zur Konfliktpartei?
Nach dem altehrwürdigen Neutralitätsrecht ist das Territorium neutraler Mächte „unverletzlich“. Konfliktparteien dürfen es deshalb in keiner konfliktbezogenen Weise nutzen. Doch wann verliert ein Staat seine Neutralität? Continue reading >>26 February 2022
Kette ins nichts?
Noch immer sind deutscher und europäischer Gesetzgeber dabei, die digitale Plattformökonomie juristisch einzuhegen. Im Umgang mit der Blockchain besteht nun die Gefahr, dass sich das alte Muster aus blauäugiger Begeisterung mit anschließendem Erstaunen wiederholt. Sie müssen aber nicht nur zivilrechtlich dogmatisiert, sondern auch öffentlich-rechtlich reguliert werden. Es drohen sonst Gefahren für den Rechtsschutz im digitalen Raum, den man gerade zu zivilisieren begonnen hat. Continue reading >>25 February 2022
Claiming “We are out but I am in” post-Brexit
It is not often that the European Court of Justice (ECJ) is presented with a case in which the law is so crystal clear, and so overwhelmingly contrary to the applicant’s claims, as in Préfet du Gers. The central question of the case is weather British nationals retain their EU citizenship and EU citizenship rights after Brexit. Given how straightforward the Treaties and the case-law are on this matter, it is unsurprising that AG Collins answered this question in the negative in a well-argued and straightforward Opinion.

Avoiding the Elephant in the Room Once Again
In its long-awaited Grand Chamber judgment, the EU Court of Justice (CJEU) dealt with the question how the effective functioning of the instrument of the European arrest warrant (EAW), built upon the principle of mutual trust between the judicial authorities of all the Member States, can be safeguarded against the backdrop of the deficiencies in the Polish judicial system. The judgment specifies the conditions under which the national judicial authorities of Member States executing a European arrest warrant may refuse to surrender the requested persons, but still fails to reach its full potential.

Rethinking Rights in Social Media Governance
In the context of the broader ‘techlash’ against the power and exploitative practices of major platforms, EU lawmakers are increasingly emphasising ‘European values’ and fundamental rights protection. But relying only on human rights to guide both social media law and academic criticism thereof is excluding other normative perspectives that place greater emphasis on collective and social interests. This is deeply limiting – especially for critical scholarship and activism that calls for the law to redress structural inequality. Continue reading >>

Der Europarat muss Russland jetzt suspendieren
Der russische Angriff auf die Ukraine hat zahlreiche europäische Akteure unsanft aus dem Schlaf gerissen und die Träume von einem friedlichen Europa zerplatzen lassen. Nun gilt es Antworten zu finden, um den Krieg möglichst schnell zu beenden, aber auch zu fragen, welche Fehler gemacht wurden und wie die Zukunft Europas als Wertegemeinschaft gestaltet werden kann. Dies gilt auch in der aktuellen Situation für den Europarat und die Europaratspolitik der Mitgliedstaaten. Continue reading >>Green(wash)ing Global Commodity Chains
Yesterday, the EU Commission finally published its proposal for a corporate sustainability due diligence directive – nearly a year after the Parliament’s resolution to the same effect. Tensions were running high among policymakers, businesses, and civil society alike following several delays, DG Internal Market weighing in on the DG Justice file, and two negative verdicts by the obscure Regulatory Scrutiny Board. Have these distortions left their mark on the final text, as many had feared? Yes and no, as I shall explain, focusing on the proposal’s operative environmental dimension. Continue reading >>

Universalism and Particularism in Constitutional Drafting
How can democratic constitutional reformers overcome the obstacles put in place by authoritarian constitution-makers? What are the foundational values that could compete for the attention of the constitution drafters? This question is a new iteration of the same old problem of law, democracy, and disagreement.

Electoral Oversight under Government Control
The Elections Bill 2021 has generated significant controversy among members of parliament, scholars, and observers. The provision that has generated the most alarm has been a voter ID provision, whose effect has been described as prospectively oppressive and whose justification is widely seen as thin, given the low levels of identified voter fraud in the UK. However, another provision of the Bill has also generated alarm: granting the Secretary of State the power to influence the currently independent Electoral Commission. Continue reading >>

Die Relevanz der inneren Einstellung
In der jüngeren Vergangenheit trat die freiheitliche demokratische Grundordnung insbesondere wegen diverser Äußerungen von Beamt:innen verstärkt in den Mittelpunkt der Berichtserstattung. In all diesen Konstellationen geht es um verbale, schriftliche oder über die sozialen Netzwerke verbreitete Äußerungen von Staatsdiener:innen, die Zweifel an deren Bekenntnis zur freiheitliche demokratische Grundordnung hervorrufen, oder sogar gegen diese gerichtet sind. Jedenfalls in den Fällen, in denen eine Äußerung nicht eindeutig als rassistisch oder rechtsextrem einzuordnen ist, kommt es auf die innere Einstellung der sich äußernden Person an.

The DSA’s Industrial Model for Content Moderation
I expect that in many real-world cases, the process prescribed by the DSA will waste resources that could better be spent elsewhere, and burden smaller platforms to a degree that effectively sacrifices competition and pluralism goals in the name of content regulation. There is a difference between procedural rules that legitimately protect fundamental rights and the exhaustive processes that might exist in a hyper-rationalized, industrial model of content moderation. The line between the two is not always clear. But I think the DSA often crosses it. Continue reading >>

The Court of Arbitration for Sport’s Multifarious Views on Freedom of Expression
In sport, the fine line between ‘political’ and ‘non-political’ expression is vital because certain expressions could potentially result in disciplinary sanctions. Dubbed as the ‘supreme court of world sport’, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (‘CAS’) is pivotal in interpreting and adjudicating cases involving freedom of expression in international sports. Currently, the CAS jurisprudence tends to fail to provide clear and consistent reasoning. Continue reading >>

A Court of Last Resort
In a survey released by Reporters without Borders in 2021, India’s position in the Press Freedom Index significantly dropped to 142nd place out of 180 countries. This blog post examines freedom of press in India from a constitutional law perspective and discusses two recent judgments of the Supreme Court of India on India’s sedition law. I argue that while the Supreme Court has protected press freedoms in different ways through interpretation of the Constitution and judicial review, sedition law continues to be (mis)used to intimidate journalists.

The next step towards auditing intermediaries
The lack of transparency of digital platforms is a well-known problem that has wide societal implications. There is now an extraordinary opportunity to establish legally mandated criteria for meaningful transparency for online platforms in the proposed EU Digital Services Act (DSA). However, their success will depend on the strength of oversight mechanisms which need to be accompanied by sufficient access to data. Hence, we propose creating an auditing intermediary to assure the effectiveness of such oversight. Continue reading >>

Monkeys in Their Own Right
A few months after the landmark Los Cedros decision, Ecuador’s Constitutional Court has ruled on another important case for the Rights of Nature. For the first time, the Constitutional Court has explicitly recognized that individual animals are protected by the Rights of Nature which also include the right to free development of animal behavior.

Not looking up
It now seems that after the ruling is before the ruling. The Commission is intent on continuing with its wait-and-see approach, a situation which Hungarian MEP Katalin Cseh compared to the Netflix movie “Don’t look up”, in which the President of the United States decides to ignore the huge comet approaching the earth. While in the movie the comet finally destroys the planet, the European Parliament, however, is determined not to let it come to that. It has made clear that it will not tolerate this policy of looking the other way and has taken up arms. Continue reading >>

Constitutional Identity in and on EU Terms
The EU protects national constitutional identities and does not protect national unconstitutional identities. This is the message the Court of Justice of the EU has sent with its decision of 16 of February 2022, in the cases initiated by Hungary and Poland about the rule-of-law conditionality mechanism, in which it ominously referred to the constitutional identity of the EU. Constitutional identity, according to the CJEU, is a key concept of public law and a fundamental pillar of the EU, so Member States constitutional identities may not be manipulated in such a way that turns into a violation of the constitutional identity of the EU.

Quantifying ‘Better Regulation’
The EU Commission is expected to publish later this month its long-awaited proposal on Sustainable Corporate Governance, an initiative to ‘better align the interests of companies, their shareholders, managers, stakeholders and society’. Almost a year of delay and possibly some toning down of the legislative ambition can be attributed, in large part, to the double negative opinion issued by the EU Regulatory Scrutiny Board’s (RSB) on the Impact Assessment. In doing so, the RSB – a body whose absence from public debate seems largely disproportionate to its actual powers – has shown its teeth and incidentally revealed some of the shortcomings of its own mandate.

Blockieren bis zum Ausnahmezustand
Am 14. Februar 2022 hat der kanadische Premierminister Justin Trudeau erstmals seit 1970 den Ausnahmezustand in Kanada erklärt. Die Maßnahme wird seitens seiner Partei vor allem mit den ökonomischen Folgen der Blockaden von Grenzübergängen und den Ereignissen in Ottawa begründet. Ob die Gerichte im Falle einer Anfechtung die Maßnahmen für rechtmäßig erklären werden, ist derzeit nicht absehbar. Continue reading >>

Would Ukraine Breach its own Constitution if it Dropped its NATO Bid?
Among the many issues discussed in the context of the current Russian threat of aggression against Ukraine, Ukraine’s NATO aspirations and Russian opposition to it joining this organization is prominent. Some may think that dropping these aspirations might help avoiding a disastrous war. This, however, is no longer just a matter of political will but of constitutional law. Continue reading >>

Impfpflicht, Arbeitslosengeld I und Sperrzeit
Ab dem 16. März gilt die einrichtungsbezogene Impfpflicht, und eine allgemeine Impfpflicht soll auch bald kommen. Für viele Menschen könnte das bedeuten, dass sie nicht nur ihren Arbeitsplatz verlieren, sondern auch kein Arbeitslosengeld I erhalten. Je nach Ausgestaltung der Impfpflicht könnte schon der Anspruch auf Alg I dem Grunde nach ausgeschlossen sein. Im Falle fehlender gesetzlicher Klarheit könnte ferner die Sperrzeitregelung faktisch zu einer Sanktionierung einer fehlenden Impfung „durch die Hintertür“ führen. Der Gesetzgeber sollte sich bei der Ausgestaltung einer Impfpflicht deshalb unbedingt auch über diese Fragen Gedanken machen. Continue reading >>Die neue Abschottung Chinas
In der Berichterstattung zur Eröffnung der Olympischen Spiele gerieten die sportlichen Ergebnisse in den Hintergrund. Vorherrschendes Thema waren und sind die radikalen Maßnahmen, mit denen die Organisatoren Chinas Null-Covid-Strategie auch angesichts des Zustroms von zehntausenden von Athlet:innen, Journalist:innen und Funktionär:innen aufrechterhalten wollen. Und wenn der Olympia-Tross nach dem 20. Februar die Heimreise antritt, wird sich deutlich zeigen, dass die Olympische Blase nur ein Indiz für ein viel grundlegendes Problem ist: die neue Abschottung Chinas. Continue reading >>

Zickzackkurs in Südwest
In einem selbst für Corona-Verhältnisse recht außergewöhnlichen Fall von Hin-und-her-Regulierung hat die baden-württembergische Landesregierung Ende Januar 2022 infektionsschutzrechtliche Vorgaben zur Teilnahme an Gottesdiensten erst deutlich verschärft, um sie dann wenige Tage später und noch vor dem geplanten Inkrafttreten Mitte Februar wieder abzuschaffen. Die über Baden-Württemberg hinausweisende Frage hinter diesem Verordnungswirrwarr lautet: Wie schwer wiegt die Glaubens- und Bekenntnisfreiheit im Verhältnis zum allgemeinen Gleichheitssatz in pandemischen Zeiten?

Keine Restmenge, keine Vorwirkung
Die 1. Kammer des Ersten Senats des Bundesverfassungsgerichts hat verschiedene Verfassungsbeschwerden nicht zur Entscheidung angenommen, welche die Landesgesetzgeber stärker für den Klimaschutz in die Pflicht nehmen wollten. Dennoch ist die Entscheidung wegen der Ausführungen zum klimaschutzrechtlichen Verhältnis von Bund und Ländern im Anschluss an den historischen Klimabeschluss vom 24. März 2021 von grundsätzlicher Bedeutung. Auch wenn das Bundesverfassungsgericht nach geltendem Recht vor allem den Bund in der Pflicht sieht, entlässt es die Länder nicht aus der Verantwortung für den Klimaschutz. Continue reading >>

Neutrality of the Olympic Movement and Freedom of Expression
The relationship between sports and neutrality belongs to the most hotly debated topics in international sports law. This blog post illustrates the application of the neutrality principle in practice and argues that the athletes’ freedom of expression in sports is emerging as a ‘concession’ rather than as a ‘right’, suggesting that a reform of the regulations imposed by the Olympic Movement is urgently needed.

In Defense of Its Identity
The introduction of rule of law budgetary conditionality, as approved by the Court, is a first step in the right direction. But the Union must go further. Taking a page from fundamental rights and anti-discrimination law, we suggest the systematic, deliberate, and transparent incorporation of rule of law considerations into all Union policies and practices at all stages, from planning and legislation to execution and enforcement, with the aim of actively promoting, realizing, and sustaining the rule of law throughout the Union.

„Bekannt aus Funk und Fernsehen, hier aber privat.“
Der WDR plant eine „Dienstanweisung zum Umgang mit sozialen Medien“. Sie sollte sich in geleakter Fassung nicht nur auf die dienstlichen Accounts der Rundfunkanstalt, sondern auch auf die privaten Accounts ihrer Mitarbeitenden erstrecken, deren Agieren in den sozialen Netzwerken weitgehend regulieren und Verstöße empfindlich sanktionieren. Diese Pläne scheinen nun vom Tisch zu sein, rechtlich haltbar sind sie jedenfalls nicht. Sollte der Entwurf doch noch in dieser Form verabschiedet werden, kann den Betroffenen vollauf geraten werden, die Gerichte zu konsultieren.

Recently, the German Parliament debated the question whether to mandate general inoculation. The supreme irony of this debate is that the minister of health invoked Hegel to argue in favour of a mandate. The irony does not lie in Hegel’s stance regarding mandatory vaccination – which he favoured much more explicitly than Lauterbach’s quotation suggested – but in the role that this government is attributing to law and politics.

Mutual (Dis)trust
Last week, the General Court of the European Union, in its judgment T-791/19 Sped-Pro, recognized for the first time the impact that systematic rule of law deficiencies have on national competition authorities. The judgement is seminal, in that it openly questions the ability of national authorities impacted by rule of law backsliding to effectively enforce EU law. The judgement also goes to the heart of explaining the pivotal constitutional role played by competition law within the EU legal order. Continue reading >>

A Profit that Creates Loss
The recent UK Supreme Court judgment of 2 February 2022 continues to exclude children from citizenship rights. The Court's decision is built on the idea that British citizenship is a statutory right rather than being based on common law or human rights law. As a consequence, the court's focus was on statutory interpretation instead of child welfare. The profit made from the children’s registration fees is at the expense of children who remain excluded from citizenship. Continue reading >>

Mit der Debatte über die Impfpflicht ist es in Deutschland wie mit dem Virus: Sie entwickelt immer neue Varianten.

Unglückliches demokratisches Bewusstsein
Vor Kurzem hat das Bundesverfassungsgericht in einem Kammerbeschluss die vielbeachtete Causa Renate Künast aufsehenerregend abgeschlossen. Die bemerkenswerte Volte der Kammer besteht darin, nicht nur schriftliche Medien wie Facebook vom sprichwörtlichen „Wirtshausgespräch“ scharf abzugrenzen, sondern auch Politiker:innen im Gegensatz zu anderen öffentlichen Personen einen besonderen Schutzbedarf zu attestieren. Der Beschluss lässt dabei mit seiner sich hier andeutenden effektiven "Hierarchievergessenheit" in einem fundamentalen Sinne gespalten zurück. Continue reading >>Political Horse-Trading at High Costs
In July 2021, the High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina Valentin Inzko used the last days of his term to criminalize genocide denial by decree.

From Romania with Love
The CJEU judgment "Euro Box Promotion" explicitly extended the Union’s requirement of judicial independence to constitutional courts for the first time. The ‘Romanian’ ruling carries an important message for the Polish government on how the EU legal order might react to the recent rulings of the Polish Constitutional Tribunal, which negate the primacy of European Union law. As a consequence, the CJEU confirms the right and the obligation of national courts to disregard constitutional court rulings that violate EU law. Continue reading >>

British citizenship as a non-constitutional status
It would generally seem uncontroversial to suggest that citizenship constitutes a fundamental status in all democratic societies. The UK Supreme Court’s recent decision in PRCBC casts doubt on whether that assertion holds true. The judgment highlights the uneasy relationship between fundamental (or constitutional) rights and citizenship rights, as well as between common law rights and statutory rights, within the UK’s incompletely codified constitutional order.

When Is a Court Still a Court?
On 3 February 2022, the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) issued a judgment in the case of Advance Pharma sp.z o.o. against Poland. This is another judgment on the irregularities in the appointments of judges to the Polish Supreme Court, in which the ECtHR confirmed its previous rulings. But it also touched on several implications of its conclusions for the Polish judiciary. It suggests that they may be relevant for ordinary courts in Poland as well and that Polish authorities should ensure the possibility to reopen proceedings in certain situations. Continue reading >>

Athletes and the Human Right to Freedom of Expression
While Sport Governing Bodies can regulate freedom of expression for athletes in sports, the current approach of the IOC seems to fail to abide by the standards required under international human rights law. In particular, the lack of clarity on the content and forms of expression banned under Rule 50 of the Olympic Charter seems to conflict with the foreseeability expected by international human rights law.
