SOVEREIGNTY TRANSFER IN THE CONTEXT OF PRIORITIZATION OF EUROPEAN UNION LAW TOWARD CONSTITUTIONAL LAW
SOVEREIGNTY TRANSFER IN THE CONTEXT OF PRIORITIZATION OF EUROPEAN UNION LAW TOWARD CONSTITUTIONAL LAW

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this research is to demonstrate that the transfer of sovereignty in the context of prioritizing European Union law over constitutional law is achieved not by validating a legal system to the detriment of another, but by harmonizing European Union and national provisions. The theoretical aspects presented in the article are supported by highlighting practical situations, by referring to two case studies: Germany and Greece. In the case of Germany, we treated the transfer of sovereignty through the participation of the armed forces in peacekeeping operations and the transfer of sovereignty through the participation of the armed forces in peacekeeping operations and, in the case of Greece, the transfer of sovereignty by prioritizing European Union rules to domestic law. Amid those analyzed we have redefined the concept of “transfer of sovereignty”.
