Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (6046 words)
The rejection of the constitution in the referenda in France and the Netherlands, made the TCE's future and the implementation of its provisions highly uncertain, provoking a crisis of confidence in the project which has resulted, at least initially, in a degree of strategic paralysis.
Eurosceptics (particularly in the United Kingdom) saw it as entrenching a European superstate, whilst socialists (particularly in France) alleged that it is a sort of neoliberal Washington consensus for Europe.
Opponents to neoliberalism maintain their initial viewpoint, in favour of European integration, but against antisocial policies (it may be compared to the November 2005 Mar del Plata Summit of the Americas and to its opposition to the Free Trade Area of the Americas).
Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe at AllExperts (4706 words)
The constitutional treaty was signed by representatives of the member states on October 29, 2004, and is now in the process of ratification by all of the member states.
Following rejection of the constitution in referenda in France and the Netherlands, its future and the implementation of its provisions are highly uncertain.
The Constitution specifies that the EU is a union of member states, and that all its competences (areas of responsibility) are voluntarily conferred on it by its member states according to the principle of conferral.
