国际法学院专业课程教学大纲 8 Preliminary ruling — Jurisdiction of the Court — Foundation — Interpretation of the Treaty III. Holding the judgment of ECJ (key findings) (1) the community constitutes a `new legal order' of international law for the benefit of which the states have limited their sovereign rights, albeit within limited fields, and the subjects of which comprise not only Member States but also their nationals. Community law therefore not only imposes obligations on individuals but is also intended to confer upon them rights which become part of their legal heritage. These rights arise not only where they are expressly granted by the Treaty, but also by reason of obligations which the Treaty imposes in a clearly defined way upon individuals as well as upon Member States and upon the institutions of the Community, (2) according to the spirit, the general scheme and the wording of the Treaty, Article 12 must be interpreted as producing direct effects and creating individual rights which national courts must protect. IV. Analysis- Principle of Direct Effect 1. conditions The ECJ concludes in this case a fundamental principle: that of the direct effect of Community law. Direct Effect means that the EU law has to be taken to be the law of the member states. (i) the provision must be clear and unambiguous; (ii) it must be unconditional; (iii) it must be intended to be operational in member states without further implementation. 2. “直接效力”的含义 欧共体基本条约的某些条文和欧共体的立法,就赋予个人以权利和在某些情况下课加义务而 言,可以在成员国产生直接的效力,即:直接由国内法院执行。 Section 2 Later development of principle of direct effect "Direct effect" of a provision of EC law was first developed as the right of an individual to enforce rights that derive from the EC Treaty before its national court although the treaty was not intended to grant rights to individuals. The purpose of this doctrine was to ensure effectiveness of Community law. Since the”van Gend en Loos” Judgment, the case-law of the European Court of Justice on direct effect has developed greatly. Later, the doctrine of direct effect was applied in not only the treaty provisions but also other forms of Community legislation, such as regulations and decisions I.

End of Chapter Assessment Question 1. What forms of Community law can be given direct effect? 2. Why is the principle of direct effect so important? 3. What is the difference between direct effect and direct applicability? 4. According to the European Court of Justice Community law can only be directly effective if certain criteria are fulfilled. Describe these criteria. 5. When discussing direct effect it is important to consider what kind of Community law is involved and which parties are involved. When individuals or private companies are using Community law against a Member State we talk of vertical direct effect. When individuals or private companies are using Community law against other individuals or private companies we talk of horizontal direct effect.What kind of direct effect was at hand in the van Gend en Loos case?
