Research Handbook on EU Administrative Law (Hardcover)

This Handbook uses a thematic and interdisciplinary approach to discuss and analyse the various governance structures of the EU, focusing in particular on how these are administered. Key chapters, written by leading experts across the field, engage with important ongoing debates in the field of EU administrative law, focusing on areas of topical interest such as financial markets, the growing security state and problematic common asylum procedures. In doing so, they provide a summary of what we know, don't know and ought to know about EU administrative law. Examining the control functions of administrative law and the machinery for accountability, this Research Handbook eloquently challenges areas of authoritarian governance, such as the Eurozone and security state, where control and accountability are weak and tackles the seemingly insoluble question of citizen 'voice' and access to policy making. Practical and engaging, this timely Research Handbook is sure to appeal to scholars and researchers of EU administrative law and EU law more broadly. Legal practitioners and EU policy makers will also benefit from its high level of engagement with contemporary deliberations. Contributors include: V. Abazi, M. Baran, T.A. Boerzel, K. Bradley, A. Brenninkmeijer, E. Chiti, D. Curtin, H. Darbishire, M. de Visser, G. della Cananea, M. Everson, J. Grimheden, E. Guild, C. Harlow, E.G. Heidbreder, H. Hofmann, C. Joerges, M. Kjaerum, P. Leino, L.

AN IMPORTANT NEW ACADEMIC RESEARCH HANDBOOK

Sun, 2 Apr 2017 | Review by: Phillip T.

AN IMPORTANT NEW ACADEMIC RESEARCH HANDBOOK ON ADMINISTRATIVE LAW FROM EDWARD ELGAR PUBLISHING An appreciation by Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers It goes without saying that the academic community rely more and more heavily on these excellent research handbooks which independent publishers, Edward Elgar, produce for us in the legal profession. The editors, Carol Harlow, Paivi Leino and Giacinto della Cananea and their experienced team of contributors, have produced an exemplary work on Administrative Law for the European Union at a time of great change for us on the continent. This Handbook uses what the editors describe, in their introduction, as “a thematic and interdisciplinary approach to discuss and analyze the various governance structures of the European Union, focusing in particular on how these are administered”. All the contributors, as the leading experts in the field, have produced specific and key chapters, which are interestingly described as a mission to “engage with important ongoing debates in the field of EU administrative law, focusing on areas of topical interest such as financial markets, the growing security state and problematic common asylum procedures”. The delightful outcome is that, by doing this, the writers have provided a first-class summary of what we know, don't know and ought to know about EU administrative law as the UK leaves and decisions are being taken on what to keep or discard by way of EU laws and their incorporation into English Law. This research handbook also reviews the control functions of administrative law and its machinery for accountability, and “eloquently challenges areas of authoritarian governance, such as the Eurozone and security state, where control and accountability are weak and tackles the seemingly insoluble question of citizen 'voice' and access to policy making”. We have no need to remind readers that the quality of the Elgar handbooks remains at the highest educational level for reliable scholastic research. The title is well described as both practical and engaging. It is also timely and of appeal to all academic and practitioner levels for researchers of European Union administrative law and EU law more broadly as the Great Repeal Act goes through Parliament in 2017 and we all face an uncertain future. Legal practitioners and EU policy makers mainly in the public sector will also benefit from its high level of what the editors describe as “engagement with contemporary deliberations”. That is exactly what you get with this important and brilliantly researched new book from Elgar. The publication date is cited as at 2017 and is available in print and electronic formats.
