关于欧洲法律的动员的文献询问了为什么个人、团体和公司会诉诸法庭，并探讨了诉讼对政策、机构和行为者之间权力平衡的影响。调查的文献，我们发现，法律的动员努力不同的政策领域和管辖区。本文介绍了一个三层次的理论框架，组织研究这些变化的原因：宏观层面的系统性因素，起源于欧洲;中观层面的因素，不同的国家;和微观层面的因素，特点的演员从事（或脱离）诉讼。我们认为，直到我们了解更多关于如何以及为什么不同的政党动员法律，这是很难回答规范的问题，无论是欧洲法律的动员是一个积极的或消极的发展，民主和权利。
The literature on European legal mobilization asks why individuals, groups and companies go to court and explores the impact of litigation on policy, institutions and the balance of power among actors. Surveying the literature we find that legal mobilization efforts vary across policy areas and jurisdictions. This article introduces a three-level theoretical framework that organizes research on the causes of these variations: macro-level systemic factors that originate in Europe; meso-level factors that vary nationally; and micro-level factors that characterize the actors engaged in (or disengaged from) litigation. We argue that until we understand more about how and why different parties mobilize law, it is difficult to respond to normative questions about whether European legal mobilization is a positive or negative development for democracy and rights.
