Overview Florence, 29-30 November 2012<br />

Nearly from the beginning of the existence of the <strong>European</strong> Communities, later the <strong>European</strong> Union, political and<br />

legal scholars have been aiming at providing various and frequently competing theories regarding the problem of<br />

the determinants that influence the manner national judges behave in the process of integration within the <strong>EU</strong>. This<br />

interdisciplinary stream of scholarship has paid attention to, inter alia, the problem of judicial co-operation between<br />

the Court of Justice of the <strong>European</strong> Union and national judiciaries and the role national judges play in this process.<br />

Individual writers focused on, for instance, the cooperation between the CJ<strong>EU</strong> and national constitutional courts, the<br />

role national litigants play in the preliminary reference procedure, the reasons of accepting the principles of supremacy<br />

and direct effect of <strong>EU</strong> law by national judges, etc.<br />

The workshop will follow and develop a new research agenda and review some old aspects on how and why courts<br />

are involved in the process of <strong>EU</strong> legal integration by raising new questions and discussing different empirical aspects<br />

concerning the relevance of national judges’ knowledge, experiences and judicial networks for the application of <strong>EU</strong><br />

law or the impact of national courts on the implementation of <strong>EU</strong> rights, policies and treaty ratification, among others.<br />

The general purpose of the workshop is to bring together scholars who work in the area of judicial behaviour in the<br />

process of legal integration within the Union and who employ a new methodological and theoretical approach to the<br />

problem. This would allow for cross-fertilization, exchange of opinions and knowledge between the academics but<br />

also for the critical assessment of the new tools which the scholars use to scrutinize the problem of judicial behaviour<br />

in the context of <strong>EU</strong> law.
