Course Description
European Union Law-I introduces students to basic legal concepts and the structure of the European Union. The course initially focuses upon a brief history of the Union outlining its early structure and later development into its current form. The course focuses upon the Treaties that shaped the EU's structure and established its legal framework. The course also focuses upon the institutional set-up of the Union describing the constitution and the function of the Commission, the Council, the Parliament, and the European Court of Justice. The course concludes with a scrutiny of the Union's legal relations with its member states examining the issue of supremacy of EU law and its perception within domestic legal orders.
