Description
(Text)
Cast along the premise that the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights is an instance of EU politics and international human rights codification, this book focuses on its creation: from the mandate of Cologne to the eventual outcome of Lisbon. The study analyses the initiative to draft the Charter, the actors then involved in the drafting process, the process itself and its end result. This book builds upon existing studies on the subject, bringing to the debate a pool of extensive empirical evidence collected over a crucial period of time during the Charter process.
