The Maastricht Treaty of 1992 introduced the right to free movement
for EU citizens. Despite this, in practice there are still
substantial barriers to securing these freedoms. EU Citizenship and
Social Rights discusses and analyses those legal and practical
barriers preventing inter-European migrants from integrating into
new host countries. Providing analysis of the development of EU
social policy, this book highlights the disparate roles of the EU
as a whole and of Member States in determining social rights and
outcomes. In particular the issues of social assistance, housing
benefits, study grants and health care are examined. In addition,
the authors discuss the discrepancy between the social rights
granted to workers and social rights granted to non-worker
migrants, as well as the barriers facing minority groups like the
Roma, which highlight issues in the development of EU social policy
for migrants. This book will be a vital resource for students of
European law as well as public and social policy. EU policy makers
will also benefit from reading this, with its practical and
theoretical suggestions for ways in which social policies may be
amended to the benefit of EU citizens. Contributors include:; N.
