Die Lissabonner Verträge haben die EU grundlegend transformiert. Eine der Gemeinschaften ist in der EU aufgegangen -- die andere, Euratom, besteht aber weiter. Im Lichte der tiefgreifenden Veränderungen, vor denen die EU im Zuge des Austritts eines Mitgliedstaates steht, ist das Verhältnis zwischen der EU und Euratom grundlegend zu klären. Wie verhält sich die Mitgliedschaft in der EU zur Mitgliedschaft in der Euratom? Der vorliegende Beitrag kommt zu dem Schluss, dass trotz getrennter rechtlicher Existenz beider Organisationen eine Mitgliedsschaft nur in beiden gleichzeitig möglich ist.
Die achten Speyrer Europarechtstage zu aktuellen Fragen des Beihilferechts fanden vom 26.-27.9.2016 an der Deutschen Universität für Verwaltungswissenschaften statt. Unter der wissenschaftlichen Leitung von Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Weiß zog die Tagung mit über 200 Teilnehmern auch dieses Jahr viele Experten aus der Praxis und Wissenschaft an. Die Vorträge gaben einen praxis-orientierten Überblick unter anderem zur neueren Rechtsprechung der Unionsgerichte, der Prüfung von Großprojekten, Rechtsfragen des Betrauungsaktes, der Neuregelung der AGVO für Flug- und Seehäfen und zum Beihilfebegriff der Kommission. In seinen einleitenden Worten hob Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Weiß die Aktualität der diesjährigen Tagungsthemen hervor. Als beherrschend nannte er in diesem Jahr vor allem die Kommissionsmitteilung zum Begriff der Beihilfe, sowie die Urteile und Schlussanträge zum Thema Selektivität und Transparenz.

Wolfgang Weiss’ contribution on “Constitutional Challenges to EU Administrative Soft Law During the Covid-19 Pandemic and Some Proposed Remedies” Studies how during the Covid-19 pandemic, as EU member states struggled to deal with the pandemic, EU officials increasingly resorted to so-called “soft law” to provide guidance to member states. He concludes that, while there are benefits to using EU soft law for crisis management and domestic implementation of EU, he raises concerns regarding their challenges for democratic legitimacy and the rule of law. He contends that these challenges should be addressed by a legislative enactment that sets forth a general framework for the adoption of EU soft law, core elements of which should be stipulations of subsidiarity vis-a-vis executive rulemaking and minimum procedural, transparency and justification requirements for the adoption of Commission soft law. Their domestic effects and reviewability should be clarified as well.

Democratization of good global governance: The EU's role in the Parliamentarization of trade policy
(2022)
The quest for good governance in trade relations occurs against the backdrop of an increa-sing politicization of trade policy. In the new reality of global value chains and servitisation, regulating trade goes far beyond technical issues of reducing entrance barriers, border measures and tariffs, but becomes a comprehensive endeavour of scrutinizing and policing behind-the-border political issues. Therefore, a call for raising the legitimacy of trade policy formulation and implementation rises. Hence, parliamentarisation of trade policy is ever more necessary. The EU's constitutional development and its practice in trade policy is a good example for more parliamentary involvement, which strengthens trade policy's legi-timacy, transparency, and public awareness. Thus, the EU indeed is, despite all weaknesses,
a pacemaker and hence good global actor to the benefit of democratisation of global trade governance, being an essential factor of good governance.
Der neue Verordnungsvorschlag der Kommission zu Drittlandssubventionen sieht eine Aufsicht durch die Europäische Kommission vor, die vergleichbar ist mit ihrer Aufsicht über staatliche Beihilfen. Dennoch bestehen erhebliche Unterschiede. Vorliegender Beitrag unternimmt einen Vergleich der Instrumente im Hinblick auf von Amts wegen eingeleitete Verfahren und analysiert Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede in den Verfahren und den Untersuchungsbefugnissen.

Vortrag gehalten auf der CES Konferenz 2017 in Glasgow zum e-government in der europäischen Zollunion.
The European Union adopts rules governing the protection of minors against harmful media content in the form of soft law. Using the example of media law and the theory of competition between legal orders, I try to shed light on the possible reasons for the regulatory choice of soft law. In the present paper, I propose that one important reason for the preponderance of soft law in a given policy area is the legislator’s ambition to bridge strongly converging policy fields with areas where diversity between Member States persists due to their varying cultural traditions and moral convictions.
Since the Treaty of Lisbon, trade policy has become an explicit part of the EU's external policy and integrated into the general framework of the EU´s external policy, but must also be in conformity with internal policies. Thus, trade policy is subject to a requirement of multiple coherence. Beyond constitutional obligations, other drivers work for the inclusion of non-genuine commercial policy objectives in trade policy, such as the orientation of contemporary trade politics towards the behind the border issues of national regulation, so that trade policy became closely intertwined with domestic regulatory policy. Therefore the actors primarily responsible for legislation, i.e. parliaments, advocate for their extended participation in determining trade policy, and rightly so for reasons of transparency, control and political inclusiveness. Parliaments thus become actors of respect for and positive consideration of non-commercial policy objectives in trade policy, which applies as well to the European Parliament (EP). Hence, an institutional design of policy formulation cycles and decision-making in EU trade policy that strives for better coherence of trade concerns with NTPOs must focus on strengthening the influence of the EP and improve its participatory rights in decision-making and its control and monitoring mechanisms. Consequently, the present paper derives proposals for improving EP´s monitoring mechanisms for the benefit of non-trade policy objectives (NTPOs) in trade policy from an analysis of weaknesses in the negotiation and implementation stage of trade policy.

Ex Officio Third Country Subsidies' Review: Similarities with and Differences to State Aid Procedure
(2022)
In May 2021 the European Commission tabled a draft Third Country Subsidies Regulation which stands between trade and competition policy. This new instrument establishes a review of third country subsidies with a view to addressing the competition distortion resulting from foreign subsidies granted to undertakings economically active in the EU internal market. As the new tool complements EU State aid scrutiny with a view to foreign subsidies, the present contribution compares the general procedures and provisions of the new regulation with EU State aid law. It will be shown that despite many similarities with State aid law, considerable differences remain which can be explained by looking at the different procedural and substantive context.
