title = "Walking on a Tightrope: The Draft Accession Agreement and the Autonomy of the EU Legal Order",
abstract = "This contribution measures the first draft agreement on the accession of the EU to the ECHR by the strict requirements of autonomy of the EU legal order. It concludes that a review by the ECtHR would be compatible with the autonomy. However, the procedure before the ECtHR provided for in the draft agreement raises serious problems. Both the co-respondent mechanism and the prior involvement of the ECJ are well intended but may not pass the hurdles erected by the ECJ in its case law on the autonomy. ",
