This book offers a comprehensive systematic analysis of the European Union's Early Warning System (EWS) for subsidiarity, which was introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon.

Philipp Kiiver explores whether the EWS could function as a mechanism of legal accountability offering a partial remedy to the European Union's much-discussed accountability deficit. The Early Warning System for the Principle of Subsidiarity provides...

Third country nationals have an important effect on, and play an important part in, the economy of the European Union, a trend that is likely to increase over time. This importance could be expected to be reflected in the rights, in particular freedom of movement, granted to them under European Union Law. Political expediency is however shaped by world, regional and domestic influences that in turn determine the policy towards third country nationals and their legal rights to freedom of movement.
This book examines the concept of political legitimacy within the European Union through...

This book analyses the Habitats Directive; one of the most prominent piece of EU environmental legislation of the past decades. Seen by some as the cornerstone of Europe's nature conservation policy, among other measures the Directive established the so-called "Natura 2000" ecological network, which covers more than 18% of the surface of the EU. However, despite the fact the Directive was adopted over twenty years ago only 17% of the protected habitats and species in Europe are being adequately protected while 10-60 % of animal species remain under threat.
In light of the...
