Book Description
Procedural law is of vital importance in Europe. Nowadays, people and companies that intend to settle in Europe still are being confronted with a huge amount of diffenrent national procedures and a hallucinating number of regulations in the procedural field. Just consider the different procedural costs, strict time limits, prescription periods, notices of appeal, . Unlike other branches of law, historical or cultural impediments to the harmonisation of European procedural laws play a far more inferior role than technical aspects, Eventually, all comes down to the question: How can one lead a case to a result on a fast way and without high costs? In this publication, Europe's leading proceduralists share there views on the approximation of procedural laws. A specific in-depth analysis is made concerning enforcement, summary proceedings, fast-track proceedings and complex litigation. In 4 languages: English, Dutch, French and German.

Book Description
Premier ouvrage sur les droits fondamentaux intégrant à la fois le droit du Conseil de l'Europe (et en particulier la CEDH) et le droit de l'Union européenne de façon systémique et inter-systémique. À jour de l'avis 2/13 de la Cour de justice sur l'adhésion de l'Union européenne à la Convention européenne des droits de l'homme et de la réforme du Tribunal de l'Union. La protection européenne des droits de l'homme a acquis une importance désormais incontestable. L'élément le plus visible en est la Convention européenne des droits de l'homme et la juridiction chargée de sa protection, la Cour européenne des droits de l'homme. Toutefois, même si le " système CEDH " demeure d'une importance centrale pour la protection des droits des individus en Europe, il n'épuise pas la protection des droits de l'homme en Europe. D'une part, le Conseil de l'Europe a produit d'autres instruments juridiques de protection des droits assortis de mécanismes de protection, comme la Charte sociale européenne. D'autre part, la place de la protection des droits fondamentaux s'est progressivement accrue depuis les années 70 dans les Communautés européennes, devenues l'Union européenne. Le signe majeur de cette place désormais centrale est l'entrée en vigueur, en 2009, de la Charte des droits fondamentaux de l'Union européenne. Enfin, cette protection est assurée, au premier chef, par les autorités nationales et plus particulièrement par le juge national, juge de droit commun du respect des droits fondamentaux européens. Le présent ouvrage entend rendre compte de cette protection européenne des droits fondamentaux au sens large, en intégrant les enjeux et les défis qu'implique la pluralité de ces systèmes européens de protection des droits fondamentaux. Il s'adresse aux étudiants en droit mais également aux universitaires et praticiens du droit, ainsi qu'à toute personne ayant un intérêt pour la problématique des droits de l'Homme et des libertés individuelles.

Book Description
Le droit de la famille, dans sa dimension civiliste, fortement ancré dans les cultures nationales des États membres, est une matière qui ne relève pas, en principe, du droit de l’Union européenne. Pourtant, il n’est plus possible d’affirmer que la matière échappe dans son entier au droit de l’Union. De nombreux aspects de la famille sont sous influence européenne, au point que l’on voit se dessiner les contours d’une « famille européenne ». L’ouvrage propose de mettre en lumière l’acquis européen en matière de droit de la famille, au prisme du droit matériel (citoyenneté européenne, politique sociale de l’Union, fonction publique européenne...), comme du droit international privé. Le droit de la famille de l’Union s’identifie alors comme un «droit spécial» complétant la diversité des droits nationaux de la famille. Sa signification théorique et politique dans l’Union est débattue par les auteurs, autant que son devenir. Loin de demeurer fragmentaire à côté des droits nationaux des États membres, il a probablement vocation à se densifier pour offrir aux citoyens et résidents européens un droit commun de la famille au sein de l’Union. Family law, with its civil law tradition, and strong roots in the national cultures of the Member States, does not normally fall within the scope of European law. However, it is no longer possible to argue that family law is outside European law entirely. There are many aspects of the family which are subject to European influence, to the point that the outlines of a «European family» are starting to emerge. This book is intended to highlight the European experience of family law and its substantive (i.e. European citizenship, EU social policy, EU civil service...) and private international law aspects. Union law therefore contains a form of «special» family law which is shared between the Member States and supplements their national family laws. Its theoretical and political importance in the Union, as well as its future, are discussed by the authors. Far from remaining fragmented alongside the national laws of Member States, it will likely develop to offer European citizens and residents a common family law within the EU.

Book Description
This is the second edition of EU Criminal Law, which has become since its publication in 2009 a key point of reference in the field. The second edition is updated and substantially expanded, to take into account the significant growth of EU criminal law as a distinct legal field and the impact of the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty on European integration in criminal matters. The book offers a holistic and in-depth analysis of the key elements of European integration in criminal matters, including EU powers and competence to criminalise, the evolution of judicial co-operation under the principles of mutual recognition and mutual trust, EU action in the field of criminal procedure including legislation on the rights of the defendant and the victim, the evolving role of European bodies and agencies (such as Europol, Eurojust and the European Public Prosecutor's Office) in European criminal law, and the development of EU-wide surveillance and data gathering and exchange mechanisms. Several chapters are devoted to the external dimension of EU action in criminal matters (including transatlantic counter-terrorism cooperation and the impact of Brexit on EU Criminal Law) Throughout the volume, the constitutional and fundamental rights implications of European integration in criminal matters are highlighted. Covering all the key principles of EU law, with clear explanation and rigorous analysis, this will give scholars, students, policy makers and legal practitioners interested in the subject a strong understanding of this fascinating but sometimes complex field.

Book Description
Just a few months after the entry into force of the EU Framework Decision on the fight against organized crime, this book provides an unprecedented analysis of the national and European legislation on organized crime. The book provides a critical examination of the European policies and legal instruments to promote the harmonization and approximation of criminal law in this field (including the United Nations Convention on Transnational Organized Crime). The current level of harmonization among EU Member States and the approximation to the standards of the new Framework Decision are discussed in detail, with the help of tables, graphs and maps. The results highlight the problems surrounding the international legal instruments and the inconsistencies of the national approaches to combating organized crime.
