Does the EU have the power to defend the rule of law in Poland? The European Commission has triggered the Article 7(1) TEU procedure against Poland on the grounds that there is now a clear risk of a serious breach of the rule of law. Laurent Pech and Kim Lane Scheppele defend the intervention against its critics in a Q&A in 10 parts.

+ Is the Rule of Law Too Vague a Notion?
+ What is Rule of Law Backsliding?
+ Should the EU Care About the Rule of Law at Member State Level?
+ Is the Organisation of National Judiciaries a Purely Internal Competence?
+ Does the Commission have the Competence to Monitor Compliance?
+ Is Article 7 Really the EU’s 'Nuclear Option'?
+ Was the Commission Right to Activate pre-Article 7 and Article 7(1) Procedures Against Poland?
+ Why Poland and not Hungary?
+ Didn’t the EU Learn That These Rule-of-Law Interventions Don’t Work?
+ Is There A Better Way Forward?
