Carl Lebeck

Carl Lebeck is an academic at Stockholm University's Department of Law. He primarily teaches Constitutional Law (Statsrätt) in the Swedish law degree program and supervises/examines master's theses in public law, focusing on constitutional/administrative law and administrative procedural law. He occasionally delivers lectures at other universities and for practicing lawyers, including engagements with the Swedish Bar Association and various public authorities like the Competition Authority and Public Health Agency.

His research centers on constitutional law, administrative law, EU law, and European human rights law. Publications analyze tensions between national constitutional law and supranational legal frameworks (EU/EEA), examining how these interactions affect power allocation, fundamental rights protection, and national constitutional effectiveness.

Carl Lebeck's work reveals a functional dependency between national and supranational legal systems that creates a 'constitutional deficit' in national law when supranational norms limit constitutional constraints. His 2024 article and 2019 doctoral dissertation highlight procedural limitations being more common than substantive ones, with national courts rarely refusing supranational law application despite constitutional concerns.
