Description

How does the EU legal structure impact on its relationship with third countries within its proximity This original book explores this question, following three related lines of inquiry. Firstly, it examines similarities and differences between EU internal and external integration, looking at both EU membership and neighbourhood law. Secondly, it looks at the legal techniques relied upon to extend the EUs legal space. And thirdly, it sheds light on the different political covenants underlying legal relations in the wider European legal space. All of these lead to the conclusion that the political covenants at play require a reconfiguration in the exercise of EU sovereignty.
