Title and Abstract: The Application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union by Administrative Courts in France and in the Czech Republic: Comparative Analysis This thesis contributes to filling the gap in empirical research on the application of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights by ordinary national courts, choosing Czech and French administrative courts as its focus. It builds on and goes beyond the existing literature by developing a coherent narrative centred around three key themes in the decision-making of Czech and French administrative courts: the Charter's applicability, its role in the reasoning and its interactions with other legal rules, such as EU secondary legislation, the ECHR and national constitutions. The primary aim is to gather data on when and how these courts give effect to the Charter in their decision-making and to evaluate this data from the three perspectives mentioned. The evaluation is made from two complementary angles. First, and unsurprisingly, it will concern itself with the extent to which national courts comply with the obligations imposed on them by the Charter and EU law. Secondly, and more originally, it will identify patterns in the Charter's treatment by national courts and offer explanations for such patterns. More specifically, it will propose a...

Abuse of European Union law Abstract The aim of this dissertation is to analyze the principle of the prohibition of abuse of EU law and its applicability in various areas of EU law. The dissertation focuses mainly on the analysis of the case law of the Court of Justice, which plays a crucial role in defining the principle and the scope of its application. The following research questions are set out in the dissertation: 1) What practice constitutes the abuse of law under EU law?; 2) Does the Court of Justice apply only one single principle of the prohibition of abuse of EU law or does it apply various principles to different areas covered by EU law?; 3) If there is only one principle of the prohibition of abuse of EU law, how is this principle applied in various areas of EU law? Is the principle applied always in the same manner or are there areas of EU law that are subject to a more restrictive application of this principle? 4) What are the legal means that can prevent the abusive practices of economic operators or more precisely what are the legal means that can reduce the abuse of law? In order to answer these research questions the dissertation is divided into five parts. The first part defines the notion of abuse of law and the purpose of the principle of the prohibition of abuse of law, which finds...
