Governance-Strukturen im Energierecht

»Governance Structures in Energy Law« The thesis analyses the structures of interrelation between public and private actors in European Energy Law and evaluates their democratic impact. Even if one accepts the described governance perspective in the jurisdiction of Germany's Federal Constitutional Court and the openness to the development of democratic principles, the decreasing influence of public actors in Energy Law leads to legal problems - in all three branches of government (executive, legislative, and judiciary).
