Title: Multilingual Interpretation of European Community Law.
Description: The Hague : Kluwer Law International, 2009. Original edition. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 440 pp.(European Monographs, 67). - According to many scholars, Community law simply cannot be understood without taking its multilingual character into account. The equal authenticity of all language versions of a Community provision, and the danger of diverging meanings between versions, imply a duty to consider the various versions when interpreting or applying laws. At the EU level, this duty can be said to be reasonably adhered to, considering the enormous strain on the Union's translating service (there are now twenty-three authentic and working languages used in the EU institutions). However - as this important book reminds us - the day-to-day interpretation and application of Community law actually takes place in the many and various courts and tribunals of the Member States. For the first time in European law scholarship, Mattias Derlén provides an in-depth analysis of the actual use of multilingual interpretation of Community law in national courts. He has sifted from the (mostly recent) history of high courts (and some lower courts) in Germany, England, and Denmark some 186 judgements in which the courts diverged from reading the national language version in isolation by admitting one or more other language versions of a Community provision.
