On November 29th 2007, the Dutch United Nations Student Association (SIB Leiden) organized a Conference, titled: "The Future of the European Union - How to Proceed in an Ever Closer Union?" The conference was meant to offer students, young academics and professionals the opportunity to engage in a debate with prominent scholars and politicians on the Future of Europe. This book contains an overview of the various issues that were discussed during the conference and attempts to do justice to both the interdisciplinarity of the conference programme and the variety of people who attended. Therefore, readers will find contributions from both Dutch and international scholars; from young academics from SIB Leiden; and from various politicians and other professionals working daily on European Union issues. As this book offers a collection of essays resulting from a Dutch conference on an international topic, contributions are either in English or in Dutch. The editors have aimed at an equal

Heads of state or government of the member states of the European Union have a dual role: they are and remain holders of domestic executive offi ces, but at the same time members of the European Council - the EU institution that is the centre of political authority within the Union. This membership, approached here from a constitutional and historical perspective, is autonomous to the extent that it is attributed to the heads of state or government and substantively determined by the EU's constitution. It is a key part of the EU structure and fundamental for comprehending the executive branches of the Union and of the member states as well as their relationship. The present study analyses the force of the duality that membership entails for the accumulation of authority within the European Council. It investigates for a number of member states - The Netherlands, Belgium and Germany - whether and how European Council membership has become compatible with and has affected domestic

Het juiste antwoord op de Europese vluchtelingencrisis lijkt nog niet te zijn gevonden. In dit (Engelstalig) preadvies betogen de auteurs dat wat wordt gezien als de Europese vluchtelingencrisis eigenlijk een crisis is in het Europese asiel- en migratierecht.

Volgens de auteurs vallen er lessen te leren uit de gebalanceerde aanpak in het Vluchtelingenverdrag van 1951. In dat verdrag werd op een evenwichtige manier rekening gehouden met de belangen van de betrokken partijen: de vluchtelingen en alle bij het verdrag betrokken staten.
