    Les parlements nationaux et le contrôle du respect du principe de subsidiarité
    in Revue de l'Union européenne/Revue du Marché Commun et de l'Union européenne , n. 525, février ,  2009 ,  88-96
    The new role entrusted to National Parliaments in the control of compliance with the subsidiary principle is a major contribution of the Treaty of Lisbon. Taking back up the mechanism contained in the Constitutional Treaty and going into it in depth, the new Treaty provides both for a deductive political control exercised directly by the Parlaments, and an inductive jurisdictional control exercised on the appeal of the latter at the Court of Justice of the European Communities. If this mechanism reinforces the involvement of National Parliaments in the Community legal process, thanks to the innovative procedure of reinforced political control in particular, which can lead to blocking the adoption of an act, questions remain concerning the effectiveness of jurisdictional control, due to the intermediation of the national governments and the uncertainties regarding its impact.
