Hart Publishing Sixty Years of European Integration and Global Power Shifts: Perceptions, Interactions and Lessons (Modern Studies in European Law)

Review At present, it is impossible to investigate the law, politics and economy separately because they are so inter-entangled. This complexity is perfectly addressed the present edited volume (produced to celebrate 60 years of European integration) in which current legal issues are analysed along with legal challenges to the EU’s role as a global actor and commercial policy as its crucial policy field … Overall, having met its own aims, the volume certainly deserves attention. --Journal of Common Market StudiesAt some 500 pages, Sixty Years of European Integration and Global Power Shifts is not a brief bedtime story. Yet its page range reflects one of the book’s major strengths: its comprehensive nature, which has become so characteristic of Julien Chaisse’s work. Another of Chaisse’s fortes, to bring together a wide variety of people working on different aspects of a certain theme, is equally displayed in the book, which includes contributions from academics, legal practitioners (including arbitrators), policy advisors and consultants, and a judge of the Court of Justice of the European Union … These make Sixty Years of European Integration and Global Power Shifts especially valuable reading whilst a pandemic is raging through the world, stopping nearly all, but geopolitics. --Foreign Trade ReviewThe variety of the topics covered and the overall clarity of presentation certainly make the work worthy of attention. --Diritto del Commercio Internazionale (Bloomsbury translation) Martino Zulberti Product Description This book focuses on a review of how sixty years of case-law and regulatory activity transformed the European continent and the world. It provides a critical analysis of the key features of EU integration and how this integration is perceived (internally and externally). In this context, this book also explores the EU’s interactions with a number of other countries and organisations with the objective of assessing the EU’s role in global governance.
