Das Buch untersucht vergleichend für den europäischen Binnenmarkt und den internationalen Handel die Zusammenhänge zwischen der Liberalisierung des Handels und seiner Regulierung zum Zwecke des Arbeits-, Gesundheits- und Umweltschutzes an den Beispielen Produkt- und Lebensmittelsicherheit in der EU, Telekommunikations- und Gesundheitsdienstleistungen, Verminderung von CO2-Emissionen von Pkw, Arbeits- und Sozialstandards im internationalen Handel, private Standards zum Schutz öffentlicher Güter im Welthandel. Als normativer Maßstab für die empirische Politikwissenschaft dient das Konzept der „Sozialregulierungsfähigkeit“. Für die rechtliche Kontrolle der externen Effekte staatlichen Handelns, der transnationalen Verwaltungskooperationen und der Aufgabenverlagerungen auf private Akteure wird das Konzept eines dreidimensionalen Kollisionsrechts entwickelt.

Although international police cooperation is not a new phenomenon and despite its relevance for the monopoly of force, studies applying a political science or international relations (IR) perspective are scarce. Through a ‘competition of claims’, this article reviews and organizes current literature on cooperation in internal security to highlight crucial points of entry for IR- and political science approaches. While both claims argue along the lines of functionalist regime theory, the ‘informality claim’ stresses state’s interest to uphold autonomy and their accordant preference for informal cooperation. In contrast, the ‘institutionalization claim’ underscores the willingness of states to create formal and strong institutions as they promise efficiency gains in light of transborder problems. By focusing on central issues in police cooperation (terrorism, drugs, money laundering, organized crime)this review highlights that internal security can become a prospering field for IR- and political science theorizing.

De la integrarea prin drept la criza financiară: Ce a mai rămas din constituţia economică europeană?
(2013)
This paper will defend the 'conflicts-law approach' and develop a step further an approach to European law which I call "conflicts-law constitutionalism". The argument will proceed in three distinct steps. I will first recall very briefly the legacy of the 'integration through law' project and submit that the conflicts-law approach can be understood as an effort to rewrite and to re-conceptualise the project of Europe's 'integration trough law' (II). The main section of the paper will confront the legacy of 'integration through law' with Karl Polanyi's economic sociology and its warnings against the commod if ication of land, labour and money (III). On that basis the potential of the conflicts-law approach will be explored in three scenarios which the commod if ication of these goods have provoked (IV). The concluding part will contrast the approach with Jürgen Habermas' renewed plea for a demoaatisation of the European project on the one hand and the Großraum theory of Habermas' favourite enemy on the other (V).
Unity in Diversity” was the fortunate motto of the otherwise unfortunate Draft Constitutional Treaty. The motto did not make it in to the Treaty of Lisbon. It deserves to be kept alive in a new constitutional perspective, namely the re-conceptualisation of European law as new type of conflicts law. The new type of conflicts law which the paper advocates is not concerned with selecting the proper legal system in cases with connections to various jurisdictions. It is instead meant to respond to the increasing interdependence of formerly more autonomous legal orders and to the democracy failure of constitutional states which result from the external effects of their laws and legal decisions on non-nationals. European has many means to compensate these shortcomings. It can derive its legitimacy from that compensatory potential without developing federal aspirations. The paper illustrates this approach with the help of a topical example, namely the conflict between European economic freedoms and national industrial relations (collective labour)law. The recent jurisprudence of the ECJ in Viking, Laval, and Rüffert in which the Court established the supremacy of the freedoms over national labour law is criticised as a counterproductive deepening of Europe's constitutional asymmetry and its social deficit. The introductory and the concluding sections generalise the perspectives of the conflicts-law approach. The introductory section takes issue with max Weber’s national state. The concluding section suggests a three-dimensional differentiation of the approach which seeks to respond to the need for transnational regulation and governance.
