The Interface Between EU and International Law: Contemporary Reflections
Despite
their many obvious interconnections, EU and international law are all
too often studied and practised in different spheres. While it is
natural for each to insist on its own unique characteristics, and in
particular for the EU to emphasise its sui generis nature,
important insights might be lost because of this exclusionary approach.
This book aims to break through some of those barriers and to show how
more interaction between the two spheres might be encouraged. In so
doing, it offers a constitutional dimension but also a substantive one,
identifying policy areas where EU and international law and their
respective actors work alongside each other. Offering a 360-degree view
on both EU and international institutional and substantive law, this
collection presents a refreshing perspective on a longstanding issue.
