The Politics of Method in EU Law

In “Politics of Method in EU Law" we aim to shed light on the distributive implications of methodological choices in the study of EU law.

The discussion regarding what is the correct, superior or most desirable way of studying law lurks in the background of academic debates across numerous legal fields. In EU law, too, various new(er) methodologies and approaches have been gaining ground.

The salient question lurking behind these developments is what this all means for the study of law and EU law in particular. In the present project we aim to unpack the impacts of methodological choices for the recognition of various types of harm, the distribution of rights and obligations, the constitution of winners and losers or the (de)legitimization of distributive outcomes in and through EU law.
