In the more recent period the Council of State has tried hard to build a harmonious relationship with the European Court of Justice. This has entailed a restriction of its sovereign power of decision in important domains. But it would be wrong to believe that this has necessarily meant a loss of power. To the contrary, this increased European orthodoxy could well allow the French judges to maintain and develop the considerable power and freedom they have acquired during the last twenty years.
