“…It will need to look at the nature of governance in medieval times, the evolution of the 'Westphalian state system', the formation of territorial and national states, the conceptual history of key principles such as state sovereignty and national self-determination, the development of the idea of European unity, the gradual growth of a framework of rules for co-operation and the changing intensity of communication flows. And this is not an exhaustive, merely an indicative, list of the changes we need to study in order to develop an understanding of Allott called the 'total history of Europe' (Allott, 1991). But an acknowledgement of the significance of this 'third layer' for the study of integration hardly amounts to a specific research agenda.…”

The acceleration of European integration in the 1990s, essentially through an increase in the scope and frequency of Intergovernmental Conferences, has provided renewed debate between intergovernmental and supranational approaches to the European Union. While efforts towards theory development have significantly increased, the ontology of such work tends to rely on actors and on specific decisions or events rather than on the elements which structure the process. In an attempt to "bring process back" into the study of the integration process, the article distinguishes between three different layers of change in Europe. Among these, policy-making and constitutional reform have received ample attention in the literature, while the deeper layer of change, structural transformation, has largely been neglected. In redressing this balance, the article suggests approaches such as constructivism, historical institutionalism and structuration theory -advances which have been important in other disciplines -to be utilised for the development of a more comprehensive agenda of integration theory development

“…UK citizens who have not exercised the right to reside in a member state prior to the end of the transition period will also lose the right to move around and reside freely in the territory of the EU (European Commission, ). The reason is that the EU seeks to safeguard the key principle of international cooperation in its future relations with the UK, namely reciprocity (Allot, ): both parties strive to ‘provide reciprocal protection for Union and UK citizens, to enable the effective exercise of rights derived from Union law'. The EU should hold firm on the demand of reciprocity during negotiations in order to incentivise the UK to offer a favourable free movement regime for EU citizens.…”

Against Associate EU Citizenship

UK nationals will lose their EU citizenship status as a result of the Brexit referendum. To prevent this, several commentators, including the European Parliament Brexit negotiator Guy Verhofstadt, proposed to grant associate EU citizenship to UK nationals to safeguard their rights as EU citizens after Brexit. We make the case against associate EU citizenship, dismissing it on three grounds. First, it violates the letter and the spirit of EU law. Second, it violates core EU values, including the EU's promise to respect the constitutional traditions of member states and the values of democracy and the rule of law. Third, it is against EU's interests, as associate EU citizenship fails to respect reciprocity in EU relations with third countries and undermines the coherence of the edifice of EU constitutionalism.

“…It is the compendium of value-related standards from which legality derives its legitimacy -the ' spiritual heart ' , in Allott ' s words, of the legal system; inimical to the untrammelled exercise of power. 183 Th e two elements taken together encapsulate the duality of the law at the centre of the Rule of Law ideal. 184 Th e neglect of jurisdictio , through a notion of autonomy that embraces only the legality component, constitutes an impoverished vision of the Rule of Law.…”
