The global financial crisis that struck Europe has profoundly affected its political, economic and regulatory landscape. This Research Handbook provides an inter-disciplinary view of State interventions in the banking sector, their control under State aid rules since the financial crisis of 2008 and the progressive emergence of a pan-European regulation of banks in distress. Assessing the policy of bank rescues over the past nine years provides a striking summary of European successes and failures and of the continuing tension between integration and fragmentation forces at play within the EU and its single market. This Research Handbook offers insights from law and economics - on the extent to which the EU/EEA State aid regime is able to address adequately the concerns of financial regulation without losing sight of its primary purpose. The contributors include academics, specialists in financial regulation, lawyers, economists and regulators, who have all followed or been directly involved in cases relating to the financial crisis. The Research Handbook on State Aid in the Banking Sector will appeal to advanced students and academics in law and economics, particularly those with an interest in financial institutions, governance and banking.

All Emma-Lynne Romantick wants is a boyfriend. It shouldn't be that hard really- she's not particularly weird, other than hailing from a family of Romaquars. Yes, she is a magical being, one of the universe's matchmakers, without whom the universe would descend into chaos. So why is it so hard for her to find her own special someone? There are a few guys with potential- like her crush, Scott. It's too bad magical law forbids her from self-matchmaking, or Emma-Lynne would definitely slip him a love potion while they work together on the school musical. Of course, there's Noel, the new boy in school who instantly becomes Emma-Lynne's good friend. But she sees him as childish and naive- certainly not capable of the serious and passionate romance for which Emma-Lynne yearns. The Romanticks explores teen ideas of romance, high school anxiety, the fantasy of controlling destiny, and a first kiss.
