'This fine collection of essays demonstrates in a very articulate
way why EU State aid law has taken the centre stage of EU law. In
eighteen chapters the reader is provided with a fascinating
snapshot of the main issues and developments of the law. The key
elements of the EU policy are analysed in a critical way often
leading to new insights. In addition the book contains a wealth of
material greatly facilitating further research.' - Piet Jan Slot,
University of Leiden, the Netherlands 'European state aid law needs
more self-questioning and more intellectual debate. In my view,
this Research Handbook is a very valuable contribution to this
necessary process. It correctly identifies the most intellectually
problematic issues within state aid law and asks the right
questions. This may be due to the balance in the excellent
selection of contributors, coming both from the academia and from
practice. This guarantees, on the one hand, that the questions are
relevant in practice and not purely theoretical but also provides,
on the other hand, for a rigorous analytical approach when
confronting the issues. The result is a fresh and interesting new
look to many of the basic issues of state aid law.' - Jose Luis
Buendia Sierra, Garrigues, Brussels, Belgium, and King's College
London, UK This timely new Handbook reflects on current issues that
confront State aid law and policy in the EU. State aid was a
neglected area of competition law until attempts to modernize it
became central to the Lisbon process 2000 where the aim was to
encourage 'intelligent' State aid by reducing aid to specific
sectors and by making better use of aid for horizontal projects
central to EU integration concerns. This policy framework has
underpinned the new approach to State aid policy in the EU in
recent years and informs many of the chapters in this book.
Contributions from leading academics, regulators and practising
lawyers, discuss topics devoted to modernization, problems faced by
recent enlargements of the EU, the role of State aid in the fiscal
crisis and recession, the role of the private market investor test,
regional aid, environmental aid and the review of the Altmark
ruling. Perspectives on State aid law and policy from the
disciplines of economics and political science are also explored in
detail. Research Handbook on European State Aid Law will appeal to
academics, regulators, national and EU government officials,
practitioners and postgraduate students who are involved in State
aid law. Contributors: C. Ahlborn, A. Bartosch, A. Biondi, A.
