Acta Universitatis Carolinae Iuridica (AUC Iuridica) is a legal journal published since 1955, which presents longer essays as well as short articles on topics relevant for legal theory and international, European and Czech law. It also publishes works concerning current legislative problems.

The published articles are subject to peer reviews. If necessary, reviewed texts are sent back to the author for revision.

AUC Iuridica accepts contributions from any contributor on any current legal topic.

The journal is registered in the Czech National Bibliography (kept by the National Library of the Czech Republic) and in the Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals (kept by the American Association of Law Libraries).

The journal is archived in Portico.

abstract

The Sources of EU Law in the Light of the Lisbon Treaty Article deals with the impact of the Lisbon Treaty on the broad area of the sources of EU Law. In this respect the article analyses the following issues: a) the impact of the abolition of the pillar structure of the EU on the system of the sources of EU law, b) elevation of the EU Charter of Fundamental rights to the level of EU primary law, c) changes in the typology and hierarchy of EU legal acts, d) changes in the EU legislative procedure, e) locus standi of the individuals to bring actions for annulment of EU legal acts before ECJ. On the basis of the analyses of above mentioned issues, the article comes to conclusion that the changes introduced by the Lisbon Treaty into the broad area of the sources of EU Law could be judged positively. The point is that these changes: a) make the system of the sources of EU law more coherent, b) increase the democratic legitimacy of the EU legislative process, c) introduce desirable order and hierarchy into the typology of EU legal acts, d) give individuals increased say in the EU legislative process, especially through the introduction of the citizens’ initiative.
