Overview

"This text aims to cover the major principles and cases of EC law, from the constitutional, institutional and administrative, as well as substantive. This revised edition takes account of the many important developments which have occurred during the last few years. Coverage of the EC institutions and law-making process has been further expanded to take into account the changes introduced by the 1997 Amsterdam Treaty. The cases following ""Factortame III, Brasserie du Pecheur"", on the scope of Member States' liability in damages have been fully explored, together with their consequent impact on the approach to the non-contractual liability of the Community institutions. These cases carry profound implications for Member States and individuals seeking to rely on Community law, as well as for those such as employers, public or private, on who Community obligations may be imposed."
