THE EUROPEANIZATION OF PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL LAW: BASIC FORMS

Abstract

The article considers some characteristic forms of Europeanization of public international law. Of all the most common forms, such as general principles of international law, customary rules of international law, international agreements, acts of judicial law interpre-tation, the author focuses on international agreements and the European Court procedures. Certain types of international treaties, mixed inter-national treaties in particular, which provide for joint re-sponsibility of the parties, are of high importance in the process of Europeanization. European Court plays a significant role in the pro-cess of Europeanization of public international law, as this supranational body converts the incorporation of international treaties of the European community into European constitutional acts. The author also highlights the fact that the process of Europeanization of public international law is bilater-al, and international law has the opposite effect on Euro-pean law enhancing regulative possibilities of the latter.
