Description
Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful introductions to major fields in the social sciences and law, expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to be accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject areas.
This is the essential introduction to understanding the law of the European Union's institutions and policies. Jacques Ziller explores the fields of EU law and its relevant politics in precise, but accessible, language, covering the internal market, free movement of citizens, the economic and monetary union, and foreign and security policies.
Key features include:
Citations of critical legal texts to aid clarity for readers
Analysis of the interactions and relations between the EU and member states
Insights on the founding treaties of the Union and how these have progressed
Discussion of both the legal and political aspects of the EU s policies and institutions.
A comprehensive insight to the topic, this book will be a vital read for EU and constitutional law scholars. It also offers a clear understanding of the topic for political science and international relations scholars wishing to gain a better understanding of EU law. Practitioners from EU institutions and member states governments and NGOs will find this offers a critical analysis of the field.
'A fresh, contemporary perspective on the European Union, which sets about presenting the Union, its constitutional and legal functions in an arresting and novel manner, which should be appreciated equally by both the expert and the general reader. An invaluable contribution to the core literature on the Union.'
- Diana P. Wallis, Former Vice President of the European Parliament and Past President of the European Law Institute
