Jock Gardiner, 2nd year Ph.D. student in EU Constitutional Law, shares his latest publications.
1) The first piece, published on EU Law Live, forms part of a Symposium on the role of the Article 255 Committee in the selection of CJEU judges. In this piece, Jock questions whether the claim that the 20-year experience rule, not found in the Treaties but devised by the Committee, is contra legem, or merely an example of a developing constitutional convention.
2) The second piece, published on the Verfassungsblog, approaches the current constitutional situation facing the United States and parts of Europe by asking what binds constitutional actors to do the right thing when the law fails. Jock tackles this question by looking at the potential answers offered by the concept of honor.
