Stabilization and Association Agreement in the Jurisprudence of the Albanian Constitutional Court

Summary/Abstract: This study will analyze the implementation of the EU-Albania Stabilization and Association Agreement (SAA) in the context of Albanian constitutional jurisprudence, with a particular focus on its status as a special source of law. The SAA holds a dual identity as both an international agreement ratified by the Parliament of the Republic of Albania and an instrument of EU law. This study aims to evaluate this dual status concerning the practical application of the SAA within the constitutional jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court of Albania. To achieve the objective of the study, two distinct research methods were employed. The desk-based research and the case study method. Desk-based research allowed for an indepth exploration of existing literature, legal documents, and academic articles on the topic. The case study method facilitated the analysis of specific instances and rulings within Albanian constitutional jurisprudence that involve the implementation or interpretation of the SAA. In conclusion, a more precise understanding will be gained of how the SAA will be applied in the resolution of concrete disagreements under the Albanian constitutional jurisprudence.
