When the initiative of Andrea Ott to write a Handbook on the legal
aspects of the next enlargement of the European Union was f ir s t
brought to my attention, I must confe ss my initial reluctance and
even scepticism at its feasibility. Of course, I did s e e the
great merits of the concept of such a venture. A handbook implies
precision, simplicity and a great deal of mental discipline in
order to cover the full breadth of the topic and thus facilitate
the readers' understanding, especially by providing the necessary
source material for further research. The European Union had
already declared its read iness to embark upon a massive
enlargement eastwards and this will be the largest ever. It is the
EU's official position that enlargement, after all, is vital to
achieving the ideals of prosperity, peace and security in Europe as
a whole . If all goes according to plan, in 2004 the EU anticipates
extending its borders to take in eight Central and East Eu- pean
countries as well as Cyprus and Malta. Moreover, the Union's
enlargement policy reaches even further afield to include the
Balkan countries . Seen in this context, the enlargement process is
a complex and ever changing one and any attempt to demystify it,
such as that involved in putting together a handbook on the
subject, is most welcome. But the pitfalls of enlargement cannot be
ignored .
