This book provides an ambitious assessment of the increasing importance of case law in the field of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice on the evolution of EU law.
In recent years the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) has occupied an increasingly prominent place in the working of the European Union and by extension the Court of Justice (CJEU). Over three parts the book looks at the framework of the AFSJ, its workings, and finally the impact of EU law upon it. The collection provides remarkable insights into the growing importance of the AFSJ and how EU law has evolved in light of this.
The book succeeds in both honoring the work of Lars Bay Larsen and offering an assessment of legislative and judicial developments in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice. It will be of interest to lawyers, judges, and academics seeking a deeper understanding of the key concepts, principles, and dynamics shaping the AFSJ * Europarättslig Tidskrift *
[T]his edited volume is a doctrinally rich and up-to-date contribution to the scholarly literature on the AFSJ ... It is a volume that speaks to multiple audiences, and that manages, across its 29 chapters, to move fluidly between the seminal cases that laid the foundations of the AFSJ and the more recent developments that continue to test them. * European Law Review *
