Summary/Abstract: The present paper discusses the consolidated jurisprudence of the German Constitutional Court regarding European integration, by putting it into a broader political and philosophical context and by referring to the German legal doctrine. The article analyses the important and well-known rulings Solange I, Solange II, Maastricht and Lisbon, but it also brings into discussion those less debated such as the ruling concerning the preventive data retention,the Mangold/Honeywell ruling or the very recent ruling concerning the European Mechanism of Financial Stability. Because of space limitations, the work is being published in two parts, the first one discussing the most important rulings of Germany's Federal Constitutional Court, and the second dealing with the other mentioned rulings. The conclusions are naturally to be found in the last part.
