Biographical note
Christian Joerges is Professor of Economic Law at the European University Institute,Florence. Navraj Singh Ghaleigh is Lecturer of Public Law at Edinburgh Law School, University of Edinburgh....we have before us an important, original, and complicated book. Pietro Costa European Law Books Dec-03 One can only hope that this volume is to bring European law to turn towards the narratives within its own history, that it is able to break the communicative silence, and that it allows [one] to take the shaping of collective memories within European public spaces serious. One can only wish that such debates will rise to the high level of Joerges and Ghaleigh's tome. Andreas Fischer-Lescano Translated by Harry Bauer Kritische Justiz 2004 ...this well-crafted set of essays is welcome... extremely interesting and useful. The project is an important one, which is fully worthy of support. Robert Cryer European Public Law, Vol 12, no.1 March 06 ...the volume at hand offers a fascinating fullness of insights and open questions. Clemens Jabloner (translated by Jo Eric Murkens) Journal fur Rechtspolitik 2005 ...the principal virtue of this book - for which the editors should be warmly thanked - is that it is there, standing hopefully at the outset of a widespread and intensive new research agenda for European law. It would be a scandal is this work did not trigger subsequent studies on the role and influence of Fascist or National-Socialistic thinking in individual European locations... Martti Koskenniemi European Journal of International Law 2004 This book is...unique in the perspective its inquiry takes into European identity, both in its diversity and in its unity. Thomas Mertens Ratio Juris 2005 The collection is rich in breadth and depth...The scope of Darker Legacies is important, for it takes questions that have been primarily directed towards Nazi law and puts them into a broader European framework. Mayo Moran Toronto Law Journal 2004 ...much can be learned from this book, and it is highly recommended to anyone interested in twentieth-century European legal thought. William E. Scheuerman Rabels Zeitschrift fur auslundisches und internationals privatrecht 2006 ...an interesting and thought-provoking contribution... Martin Loughlin European Law Review 2004 The biggest portion of the book and the most tantalizing is the part devoted to the question of whether the Nazi order casts a shadow on the European Union.
