Signe Rehling Larsen is the author of The Constitutional Theory of the Federation and the European Union (OUP 2021), as well as European Public Law after Empires, European Law Open (2022). In these strikingly original works, she argues, contrary to settled assumptions, that the European Union is neither a unique nor an unprecedented political structure, but one that has a venerable ideal in the form of the 'federation', as well as an uncomfortable relationship with the imperial heritage of its Member States.
Signe is currently an Examination Fellow in Law at Magdalen College, Oxford University. She obtained her doctorate in 2018 from the London School of Economics, after which she held a Max Weber postdoctoral fellowship at the European University Institute. She has also spent time at the New School for Social Research in New York, Bard College Berlin, and the University of Copenhagen.
