The European Union has responded in unprecedented ways to Russia’s war against Ukraine, but the organization’s impact has been constrained by its structure and founding documents, according to panelists at a recent forum at Harvard Law School.
That was a central theme of a recent panel discussion featuring Federico Fabbrini, a professor at Dublin City University, a research fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School, and the author of the recent book “The EU Constitution in Time of War: Legal Responses to Russia’s Aggression Against Ukraine.”
“[The EU] was created as a project to secure peace… it was never conceived as an organization that had to deal with the reality of warfare, hard power, and military issues.”
Fabbrini was joined by Harvard Law School professors Susan Farbstein ’04, Alex Whiting, Mark Wu, and moderator Gerald Neuman ’80. The event was sponsored by the Human Rights Program, the International Human Rights Clinic, the Harvard Human Rights Journal, and the Harvard European Law Association.
