This book explores the emerging engagement of EU law with care and
carers. The book argues that the regulation of care by the EU is
crucial because it enables the development of a broad range of
policies. It contributes to the sustainability of society and
ultimately it enables individuals to flourish. Yet, to date, the EU
approach to regulating the caring relationship remains piecemeal
and lacks the underpinning of a cohesive strategy. Against this
backdrop, this book argues that the EU can and must take leadership
in this area by setting principles and standards in accordance with
the values of the treaty, in particular gender equality, human
dignity, solidarity and well-being. The book further makes a case
for a stronger protection for carers, who should not only be
protected against discrimination, but should also be supported,
valued and put in a position to make choices and lead full lives.
In order to achieve this, a proactive approach to rebalancing the
relationship between paid and unpaid work is necessary. Ultimately,
the book puts forward a series of legal and policy recommendations
for a holistic approach to care in the EU.
