Bio

Dr. Davies is approaching the study of the European Union legal system from a fresh perspective by critically examining the development of the constitutional practice of law in the EU from a historical perspective. Dr. Davies has traveled extensively to uncover the primary documents that will contribute to a fresh and empirically accurate narrative of the emergence of the European constitutional system and to answer the question of how the controversial consolidation of power at the European level has been received in the EU’s member states. Dr Davies recently published a monograph on the German reception of European law. Germany’s relationship with the European Court of Justice has been fraught with challenges and it is Germany’s reactions to the decisions of the court that largely have, and will, determine its future. Dr. Davies teaches courses such as JLS-110 Western Legal Traditions and JLS-411 Great Trials in Legal History. He has also focused his attention on improving the way his students by creating peer-lead reading groups to facilitate discussion and encourage critical thinking, and has also presented on the subject of improving student retention rates. Dr. Davies was the recipient of the Justice, Law and Criminology ‘Outstanding Teacher’ award in 2011 and 2012.
