Die Haftung der EG für die Verletzung von WTO-Recht

EC liability for the violation of WTO law is one of the central issues in connection with the effects of world trade law in the EC legal order. Based on the legal effects of WTO law according to the case law of the European Court of Justice, Simeon Held demonstrates the significance of these legal effects for legal protection in the European Community, especially the liability of the EC. He shows that a claim for damages based on the liability established in Article 288 (2) TEC can basically only be taken into consideration if there is also a violation of Community law since WTO law is not directly applicable. More importance can be attached to the liability of the Community for a lawful act. The author also deals with the compatibility of claims for damages under EC law with the WTO subsidy regulations.
