Isolde Burr und Prof. Dr. Gertrud Gréciano (Hrsg.)Europa: Sprache und Recht •La construction européenne:aspects linguistiques et juridiquesAufbauend auf der Erkenntnis und Erfahrung, dass die Mehrsprachigkeit desRechts der Europäischen Gemeinschaft einen prägenden Bestandteil der sichausbildenden Rechtskultur bildet, stellen sich spezifische Fragestellungen kontrastiverTextproduktion und Textrezeption im Kontext von Sprachenrecht undRechtssprache.

Schlüsselthemen sind hierdas Gemeinschafts-, Völker-, Grund-, Menschen-, Minderheiten-, VerfassungsundVerwaltungsrecht. Fallbeispiele aus den EuGH-Urteilen, EU-Verträgen,EU/EG-Konventionen, -Richtlinien und -Debatten demonstrieren sowohl die Gefahrenquelledes Missverständnisses beim Sprachenvergleich in Rechtstexten,weisen aber ebenso auf eine Weiterführung von Auslegungsmethoden imRahmen einer Entwicklung der Rechtsprechung.2003, 237 S., geb., 54,– €, ISBN 3-8329-0340-2(Schriften des Zentrum für Europäische Integrationsforschung (ZEI), Bd. 52)Nomos
101Italy and the Hague Conference of December 1969Maria Eleonora GuasconiIn spite of an idealistic reference to Europeanism, the Italian position in post-warEuropean integration may be stereotyped as the somewhat passive witness ofinitiatives taken by other countries. 1 Apart from such renowned names as Alcide deGasperi, Altiero Spinelli, Emilio Colombo, Ugo La Malfa and Aldo Moro, Italianparticipation has been characterised by long delays in implementing EC regulationsin national law and the lack of interest shown towards the Brussels institutions bypolitical leaders, as is illustrated best by Franco Maria Malfatti's decision to resignfrom the presidency of the Commission, in order to take part in the domesticpolitical elections held in 1972. 2This stereotype persisted also among the other European countries, where Italy,due to its instability, was seen as the weak link of the Western chain. 3 «The Italiansin Brussels generally are not good at chairing meetings; and at ministerial levelthere is a continual risk of changes», wrote John Robinson, sir Con O'Neill'sassistant, in a minute, which explained the reasons why Great Britain should endthe enlargement negotiations before July 1971, when Italy assumed the presidencyof the Council of ministers. 4The negative image of Italy as a ‘weak negotiator’, unable to defend its nationalinterests, was exemplified by the country's inability to pursue its interest in the fieldof the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), where Italian political leaders agreed toset up a mechanism which was disadvantageous to their agriculture; 5 by the1.
