Description

This monograph explores the connections between the European Union and international dispute settlement. It highlights the legal challenges faced by the principal players in the field: namely the EU as a political actor and the Court of Justice of the EU as an international and domestic judiciary. In addition, it places the subject in its broader context of international dispute settlement, and the participation of the EU and its Member States in international disputes. It focuses on horizontal and cross-cutting themes, bringing together insights from the different sectors of trade, investment and human rights, and offering a variety of perspectives from academics, policymakers and practitioners.

Reviews

[A] well-structured and highly relevant compendium from an interesting mix of authors, both from the academic world and some specialized practitioners... I would recommend reading the book from A-Z ... as a must read for all EU-external relations aficionados. -- Frank Hoffmeister * Common Market Law Review *
