 pleased to host Ieva Hūna for a lunch talk on Friday\, November 14\, from 1
 2:30 to 1:15 p.m. in WCC 3038. Ieva is a PhD researcher at the European Uni
 versity Institute in Florence\, Italy and a visiting researcher at Fordham 
 University under the Fulbright-Schuman Program. She holds an LL.M. in Europ
 ean law from Leiden University and has worked with the Representation of th
 e Latvian government to the Court of Justice of the EU.</div><div></div><di
 v>The European Union has outgrown the principles of executive federalism or
 iginally envisaged by its architects. Its expanding regulatory and enforcem
 ent ambitions\, coupled with a limited executive capacity\, have led to the
  emergence of a new model for implementing EU law.  Contrary to the strict 
 separation of national and supranational administrations presupposed by exe
 cutive federalism\, the EU and national authorities now increasingly operat
 e as a single\, integrated administration. While this arrangement represent
 s a necessary political compromise and a pragmatic solution to institutiona
 l constraints\, it obscures lines of accountability and risks leaving execu
 tive power insufficiently checked. The European experience thus stands in s
 harp contrast to the American federal model\, reflecting divergent understa
 ndings of sovereignty in the face of a centralised executive authority. The
 se different perceptions led the American federal structure to anticipate a
 nd avoid the pitfalls of the integrated administration confronting the EU t
 oday.</div><div></div><div>Lunch will be served.</div>
