Legal Dynamics of EU External Relations (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

The book offers a concise and thorough overview of the principles of the law of EU external relations. Through a meticulous examination of the role of the Union on the global scene, it provides a systematic overview of the relevant rules and competences, reflecting on the legal developments in their political and societal context. The book contains updated analyses of inter alia the Common Foreign and Security Policy, the Common Security and Defence Policy and the Common Commercial Policy. Moreover, it devotes specific attention to the EU's external powers as regard the environment, fundamental rights and development cooperation. In addition, it includes a dedicated chapter exploring the relations with neighbouring countries, as well as one that elucidates the complex interplay between rules of domestic, European and international provenance.

The second edition of this established textbook is even more specifically geared towards (graduate) student usage, inter alia through the inclusion of abstracts, box headings and clarifying examples. A thorough revision of all the chapters ensures that its accessibility is not compromised, but further enhanced where possible. Due to its compact dimensions, comprehensive approach and engaging style of writing, it should continue to enable readers to master the main features of this gripping field of law with ease. Thus, it is guaranteed to remain an invaluable resource for students and lecturers alike.
