    L'adhésion de l'Union européenne à la Charte sociale européenne
    in Revue trimestrielle des droits de l'homme , no. 102 ,  2015 ,  259-316
    This article examines the political and legal questions raised by the accession of the European Union to the European Social Charter of the Council of Europe. It recalls the main arguments in favor of accession, and it examines whether the European Union has the required international competence to accede to the European Social Charter. It also considers the consequences that will follow from the accession of the European Union to the European Social Charter, relating those consequences to the objections addressed by the Court of Justice of the EU to the accession of the EU to the European Convention on Human Rights in its Opinion 2/13.
