Abstract

The legal character of the three European Communities has led to an endless controversy. While the Communities are based on international treaties, the subject matter of their regulation is most akin to that of municipal law. Further, taken individually the distinguishing marks of these Treaties may be found in various other international organizations, but taken as a whole the Treaties represent a distinct development in the history of international organizations. This development has been viewed from the standpoints of international, supranational, and federal organization,1 a controversy which this study will not attempt to resolve. Rather, by comparing the Community 2 Treaties to municipal and international organization, it may be possible to pinpoint this development and to assess its essential importance for the function of the Court of Justice in the Communities.
