Martinico & Pollicino: The National Judicial Treatment of the ECHR and EU Laws. A Comparative Constitutional Perspective

Giuseppe Martinico (Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies & Univ. of Pisa) & Oreste Pollicino (Bocconi Univ. - Law) have published The National Judicial Treatment of the ECHR and EU Laws. A Comparative Constitutional Perspective (Europa Law Publishing 2010). The table of contents is available here. Here's the abstract:
Do national judges start treating the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights the same way they treat the EC law’s norms? In order to answer this question the editors (Giuseppe Martinico and Oreste Pollicino) involved scholars from the countries that are members both of the EU and the Council of Europe. The book collects the proceeding of an international conference at the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna of Pisa (16-17 January 2010).
