Questions for Self-Control II

More than one answer may be correct!
1. The following case solved by the Court of Justice of the European Union could be added under the Pre-Maastricht period:
Case 29-69, Erich Stauder vs. City of Ulm
Case C‑438/05, International Transport Workers’ Federation, Finnish Seamen's Union vs. Viking Line ABP, OÜ Viking Line Eesti
Case 11-70, Internationale Handelsgesellschaft mbH vs. Einfuhr- und Vorratsstelle für Getreide und Futtermittel
Joined Cases C-402/05 P and C-415/05 P, Yassin Abdullah Kadi and Al Barakaat International Foundation vs. Council and Commission



2. Cases C-60/00, Carpenter; C-112/00, Schmidberger; and C-36/02, Omega, have something in common. What is this something?
These cases have been solved by the Court of Justice.
These cases are about application of human rights under EU law.
In all these cases, preliminary ruling was asked from the European Court of Justice.
In all these cases, reference has been made to the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.



3. What is the main difference between the cases C-438/05, Viking, and C-341/05, Laval?
While C-438/05, Viking, is about free movement of capital, C-341/05, Laval, is about free movement of goods.
Both cases are about balancing between a EU freedom and social rights.
While C-438/05, Viking, is about the right of establishment and social rights in the EU, C-341/05, Laval, is about the freedom to provide services and social rights in the EU.
I see absolutely no difference between these cases.



4. According to the judgment in the joined cases C-402/05 P and C-415/05 P, Kadi and Al Barakaat International Foundation vs. Council and Commission:
the Court of Justice set aside the judgments of the Court of First Instance in Case T‑315/01, Kadi v Council and Commission and Case T‑306/01 Yusuf and Al Barakaat International Foundation v Council and Commission.
the Court of Justice annulled Council Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 of 27 May 2002 imposing certain specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities associated with Usama bin Laden, the Al-Qaeda network and the Taliban, and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 467/2001 prohibiting the export of certain goods and services to Afghanistan, strengthening the flight ban and extending the freeze of funds and other financial resources in respect of the Taliban of Afghanistan, in its entirety.
