Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies - Vol 1

Descriere

The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies provides a new forum for the scrutiny of significant issues in European Union Law,the law of the Council of Europe, and Comparative Law with a ?European? dimension, and particularly those which have come to the fore during the year preceding publication. The contributions appearing in the collection are commissioned by the Centre for European Legal Studies &; CELS; Cambridge, which is the research Centre of Cambridge University Law Faculty specialising in European legal issues. The papers presented are all at the cutting edge of the fields which they address, and reflect the views of recognised experts drawn from the University world, legal practice, and the civil services of both the EU and its Member States. Inclusion of the comparative dimension brings a fresh perspective to the study of European law, and highlights the effects of globalisation of the law more generally, and the resulting cross fertilisation of norms and ideas that has occurred among previously sovereign and separate legal orders. Each edition will commence with the Mackenzie-Stuart Lecture, established in honour of Lord Mackenzie-Stuart, formerly President of the ECJ, and given each year in the Cambridge Law Faculty. The first Lecturer, in 1997, was Judge G Rodriguez Iglesias, currently President of the ECJ; the second was Mr Jean-Louis Dewost, Director General of the Commission?s Legal Service. Their contributions launch Volume 1. The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies is an invaluable resource for those wishing to keep pace with legal developments in the fast moving world of European integration.
