Description and Table of Contents

Description

The social security law of the European Union (EU) has become of vital significance to persons living or working in EU Member States. The creation of the European Economic Area and the start of the task of accession of the candidate Members (Eastern European countries) have further increased its impact. This book describes EU social security law, beginning with the rules relevant to migrant workers. Coverage includes Regulation 1408/71 and 574/72 and the case law of the Court of Justice of the EC.
