项目摘要

My doctoral project deals with the political authority of the European Union, hence the legitimacy conditions for its right to rule. It is divided into two main parts.In the first part, I intend to analyze nature and scope of the particular authority claim of the EU as a supranational polity, ie how it situates itself between state sovereignty and the authority of international organizations. The chosen criteria for this inquiry are institutions, membership and territory.In the second part, I expound the appropriate theoretical benchmark for judging this right to rule by drawing on political authority and obligation literature. Finally, I will judge the EU against this standard and thereby explain extent and limits of the EU's authority.The overall objective is to further our understanding of the EU's authority and thereby to trigger a discussion of the conditions for rightful rule in a non-statist supranational polity.2. Research ContextMy research aims to contribute to the growing literature on the Philosophy of the EU. Surprisingly, a comprehensive account of justifying the EU's authority or the appropriate basis for a moral obligation to obey EU law is still missing. Seminal discussions in surrounding areas, such as the social legitimacy of the EU or the EU's relation to sovereignty, have hitherto neglected this salient set of questions.My particular contribution will be to offer an account for the legitimate authority of the EU in order to stimulate a discourse on the conditions and limits for rightful rule in today's Europe. For the reach of the EU and its law becomes ever wider and its authority claim expands ever more into sensitive areas of policymaking. Thus, EU scholarship needs to discuss under what conditions this authority claim can be reconciled with individual autonomy and state sovereignty, to separate yet interrelated bedrocks of post-Enlightenment authority theory.3. MethodologyMy methodological approach combines doctrinal analysis of EU constitutional law on the one hand, and political theory (by developing a theoretical framework for the supranational manifestation of political authority) on the other. This combination serves to understand the theoretical nature of the EU, while closely reflecting the underlying social and legal reality. Whereas one has a reasonably good understanding of what states do - including ample theoretical arsenal to describe it - the same cannot be said about the EU as a sui generis polity. For example, the authority claim of the EU - amongst others - has been described as 'late sovereignty', 'quasi-national authority'. I try to put flesh to the bones of such terminology instead of restricting myself to simple labelling.

我的博士项目涉及欧盟的政治权威，因此其统治权的合法性条件。本文主要分为两个部分：第一部分分析欧盟作为一个超国家政体的特殊权力主张的性质和范围，即欧盟如何在国家主权和国际组织权力之间进行定位。第二部分，通过借鉴政治权威与义务文献，阐述了判断这种统治权的适当理论基准。最后，根据这一标准对欧盟进行评价，说明欧盟权威的范围和限度。总的目的是加深对欧盟权威的理解，并由此引发对非国家主义的超国家政治中的正当统治的条件的讨论。研究背景我的研究旨在为欧盟哲学的不断增长的文献做出贡献。令人惊讶的是，一个全面的说明，证明欧盟的权威或适当的基础，道德义务，遵守欧盟法律仍然是失踪。在欧盟的社会合法性或欧盟与主权的关系等周边领域的初步讨论中，迄今为止都忽略了这一系列突出的问题。我的特别贡献将是为欧盟的合法权威提供一个解释，以激发对当今欧洲合法统治的条件和限制的讨论。因为欧盟及其法律的影响范围越来越广，其权威主张越来越多地扩展到敏感的政策制定领域。因此，欧盟学术界需要讨论在什么条件下这种权威主张可以与个人自治和国家主权相协调，以分离后启蒙时代权威理论的相互关联。我的方法论方法结合了欧盟宪法的理论分析，一方面和政治理论（通过发展一个理论框架的政治权威的超国家表现）。这种结合有助于理解欧盟的理论性质，同时密切反映了潜在的社会和法律的现实。尽管人们对国家的行为有相当好的理解--包括足够的理论武器来描述它--但欧盟作为一个独特的政体却不能这么说。例如，欧盟的权威主张--除其他外--被描述为“晚期主权”、“准国家权威”。我试图把这些术语的肉骨头，而不是限制自己简单的标签。
