Law and Integration in the European Union

More about the book

In recent years, the EC has enjoyed a significant increase in its profile at both national and international levels. This book explains how the legal rules which underpin the process of integration in the EC have been shaped in order to give effect to the Community's objectives. It is accordingly suitable as a introductory text designed to expose the reader to the basic constitutional and substantive principles of EC law. Community law exerts an increasingly profound impact on domestic law, and this book equips a lawyer unfamiliar with the principles of COmmunity law with an awareness of when and why Community law is of relevance in domestic litigation.
