EU Administrative Law (Collected Courses of the Academy of European Law)

The third edition of EU Administrative Law provides comprehensive coverage of the administrative system in the EU and the principles of judicial review that apply in this area. This revised edition provides important updates on each area covered, including new case law; institutional developments; and EU legislation. These changes are located within the framework of broader developments in the EU. The chapters in the first half of the book deal with all the principal variants of the EU administrative regime. Thus there are chapters dealing with the history and taxonomy of the EU administrative regime; direct administration; shared administration; comitology; agencies; social partners; and the open method of coordination. The coverage throughout focuses on the legal regime that governs the particular form of administration and broader issues of accountability, drawing on literature from political science as well as law. The focus in the second part of the book shifts to judicial review. There are detailed chapters covering all principles of judicial review and the discussion of the law throughout is analytical and contextual. It begins with the principles that have informed the development of EU judicial review. This is followed by a chapter dealing with the judicial system and the way in which reform could impact on the subject matter of the book. There are then chapters dealing with competence; access; transparency; process; law, fact and discretion; rights; equality; legitimate expectations; two chapters on proportionality; the precautionary principle; two chapters on remedies; and the Ombudsman. -- Provided by publisher Cover 1 Title_Pages 2 Dedication 6 Preface 8 Contents 9 Table_of_Cases 12 Tables_of_Legislation_Treaties_and_Conventions 80 Abbreviations 94 PART I ADMINISTRATION AND L AW 98 1 History_and_Typology 99 2 Crisis_Reform_and_Constitutionalization 132 3 Centralized_Management 152 4 Shared_Management 176 5 Comitology 207 6 Agencies 247 7 Open_Method_of_Coordination 295 8 Social_Partners 334 PART II LAW AND ADMINISTRATION 357 9 Foundations 358 10 Courts 375 11 Access 406 12 Process 443 13 Transparency 483 14 Competence_and_Subsidiarity 496 15 Law_Fact_and_Discretion 531 16 Rights 579 17 Equality 640 18 Legal_Certainty_and_Legitimate_Expectations 695 19 Proportionality_I_EU 737 20 Proportionality_II_Member_States 764 21 Precautionary_Principle 789 22 Remedies_I_EU 817 23 Remedies_II_Member_States 853 24 The_OmbudsmanDr_Alexandros_Tsadiras 890 Index 916
