Anotace

V originále

This chapter deals with the legal status of so-called subsidiary treaties concluded among EU Member States outside the framework of EU law, but with a close legal link to it. It analyses their relationship to primary and secondary EU law, compare them to interstate compacts in the USA, and examines their nature on the basis of their interpretation by the CJEU. I will also address the question of EU and Member State competences in the context of these treaties, and the implications of the Lisbon Treaty on their existence. In particular, the analysis focuses on whether these treaties constitute a source of international or EU law. The key question is then whether these treaties represent a possible alternative to cooperation between EU Member States vis-à-vis the European Union. Finally, it focuses on the scope and future of subsidiary treaties within European integration.
