      <abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>A unique political animal, the European Union has given rise to important constitutional conundrums and paradoxes that John Erik Fossum and Agustín José Menéndez explore in detail in this book. The authors consider the process of forging the EU's constitution and the set of fundamental norms that define the institutional structure, the decision-making procedures, and the foundations of the Union's democratic legitimacy. Their analysis illuminates the distinctive features of the EU's pluralist constitutional construct but also the interesting parallels to the Canadian constitutional experience and provides the tools to understand the Union's development, especially during the Laeken (2001–2005) and Lisbon (2007–2009) processes of constitutional reform.</p>

        <p>Organismo politico unico, l'Unione europea ha dato luogo a paradossi e enigmi costituzionali importanti che John Erik Fossum e Agustín José Menéndez analizzano a fondo in questo libro. Essi prendono in considerazione il lungo processo volto a dare una costituzione all'Unione Europea e l'insieme delle norme fondamentali che ne definiscono la struttura istituzionale, le procedure decisionali e i fondamenti della legittimità democratica. La loro analisi fa luce sulle caratteristiche peculiari della struttura pluralistica dell'Unione, ma instaura anche un interessante parallelo con l'esperienza costituzionale canadese. In tal modo gli autori forniscono al lettore gli strumenti per comprendere lo sviluppo dell'Unione Europea in particolar modo durante il processo costituzionale di Laeken (2001–2005) e quello di Lisbona (2007–2009).</p>
