C 2006 The Author Journal compilation C 2006 Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 9600 Garsington Road, Oxford, OX4 2DQ, UK and 350 Main Street, Malden, MA 02148, USA Editorial Francis Snyder The results of the 2005 referenda in France and The Netherlands are still being dis- cussed and debated throughout the European Union and elsewhere, for example in China. The 'No' vote raised profound questions about the nature, meaning, and direc- tion of European integration, as well as indicating how poorly national governments have communicated with their (national and European) citizens about the impact of 'Europe' on their daily lives. In this issue of the European Law Journal, several members of the ELJ Editorial Board present their reflections on the referenda and their impli- cations. As readers will know, the ELJ does not have an 'editorial line', so the members of the Board write in their personal capacities. These reflections are intended to be con- tributions to the current, continuing debate. We hope that you will find these reflections stimulating and thought-provoking. The full-length articles in this issue concern private law, labour and social labour, and constitutional law. Starting in 2006, the European Law Journal will also publish book reviews and review articles. If you are interested in writing book reviews or review articles, or if you have a book that you would like to have reviewed in the ELJ, please contact Kenneth Armstrong (Queen Mary College London) or Daniel Thym (Humboldt University, Berlin).
