Over the next few days, we shall be hosting a discussion of Juliane Kokott and Christoph Sobotta’s article “The Kadi case – Constitutional Core Values and International Law – Finding the Balance?” which was published in the final issue of volume 23 of the European Journal of International Law (2012). Juliane is an Advocate General at the Court of Justice of the European Union, and Christoph is a legal secretary in her chambers. The first commentary on this article is by Nele Yang, who is a PhD candidate and research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law, and the second by Dr Antonios Tzanakopoulos, who is a lecturer in public international law at the University of Oxford and a fellow of St Anne’s College. The final post in this discussion is a reply to Nele and Antonios’ comments by Juliane and Christoph. You are invited to join in this conversation.
