  • Descrição: The paper focuses on the constitutional pluralism argument, especially its perception of constitutional sovereignty as differentiated and divided between specific social subsystems. The EU paradox of divided sovereignty & the Union's differentiated constitutional domain are used as examples of profound semantic changes in the sovereignty discourse in contemporary national & post-national societies; changes particularly promoted by the European Court of Justice & national constitutional courts. However, European constitutionalism & especially the complexity of institutional relations & conflicts between the ECJ & national systems of justice also reveal the persisting capacity of the sovereign nation state to operate at EU level. This persistence effectively questions the claim of governance theories that nation-state institutions are becoming redundant in an emerging globalized European polity. The self-constitutionalisation of European society, rather, proceeds by internalizing state sovereignty as one of its systemic operations & the EU's horizontal network of constitutional communication (both cooperative & conflictual) between the ECJ & constitutional courts of EU Member States is one of its most persuasive examples.
