Title EU and National Citizenship: Explaining the Lack of Member States' Response to the Rottmann Ruling of the CJEU
Summary This thesis aims at uncovering the reasons for the lack of EU Member States’ response to the Rottmann ruling of the Court of Justice of the European Union. The study adopts the conceptual framework of Michael Blauberger presented in his article “With Luxembourg in Mind ... the Remaking of National Policies in the Face of ECJ Jurisprudence”. Process tracing was applied in order to examine the impact of the pressure of interested political actors (or the absence of it) on Member States’ motivation to initiate legislative adjustments to comply with Rottmann. The case studies (Belgium and Ireland) showed that some political actors demonstrated concern with the implication of the case on nationality laws of Member States, while others revealed no reaction.
