    The term ‘European judicial area’ has its origins at the Brussels European Summit of December 1977. The then French President d’Estaing introduced the idea of a so-called ‘European judicial area’ (fr. Espace judiciaire européen; translated also as ‘European legal area’ or ‘European judicial space’). It was intended as an ambitious instrument to combat terrorism in a situation where individual European States were subject to blackmailing pressure from Middle Eastern terrorist groups . However, it only began to become a reality after the Treaty of Amsterdam of 1997, which entered into force in 1999; see: Bainbridge and Teasdale (1995), p. 141; Anderson and Apap (2002), p. 41; or Tomášek (2009), p. 16.

    In Germany under the Constitution (Basic Law) the extradition of a German national to a foreign State was initially forbidden absolutely. However, the 47th Amendment to the Basic Law (Bundesgesetzblatt 2000, part I, p. 1633), adopted in 2000, softened this rigid prohibition. Nowadays, in spite of the fact that no German may be extradited to a foreign country, the national law can provide otherwise for extraditions to an EU Member State or to the International Criminal Court.
