Reviews

'The essence of EU governance is unavoidably administrative. We must thank Harlow, della Cananea and Leino for pulling together these contributions exploring the administrative dimension of EU law and politics with such expertise, range and insight. The authors do not shy away from uncomfortable topics, whether its creeping authoritarianism or the challenges of top-down oversight or bottom-up participation. In a system becoming arguably more diffuse, fragmented, technocratic, and juristocratic by the day, this Handbook will serve as an essential tool for anyone who wishes to understand the nature of the integration project at this pivotal moment in its history.' -- Peter L. Lindseth, University of Connecticut, School of Law, US 'Bold, fresh and impeccably researched, this invaluable book will allow the reader to understand the manifold sides of European Administrative Law, the most vital area of EU law. Leading scholars of this legal science, coordinated and edited by Carol Harlow, Giacinto della Cananea and Paivi Leino, have written twenty two essays on particularly relevant issues of European Administrative Law, achieving remarkable results. The book successfully combines long established topics, such as accountability and control , with other areas not yet fully explored, including voice and citizenship and, controversially, resurgent authoritarianism . The result is a formative Research Handbook, indispensable for students, scholars and European legal administrators. It provides new legal substance to the concept of European Administrative Space .' -- Mario P. Chiti, Emeritus Professor of Law, University of Florence and Jean Monnet Chair ad personam of European Administrative Law, LUISS University, Italy 'The science of European Administrative Law has reached a level of maturity which is reflected by the fact that it is no longer solely the subject of more or less theoretical, exploratory works: it now merits the development of handbooks. Carol Harlow, Paivi Leino-Sandberg and Giacinto della Cananea have gathered to make this book one of the most expert authorities in the field. The themes are very well chosen, covering what are certainly the most critical issues in the area. The same is true of the concepts mobilised, with those conveyed by regulatory theory being particularly welcome. This Handbook will no doubt be a valuable instrument for students and researchers working on the still new, but increasingly well-recognized, field of European Administrative Law .' -- Jean-Bernard Auby, Professor, Director of the Governance and Public Law Chair, Sciences Po Paris, France

It deserves to be widely read by scholars at all levels of seniority across Europe.' -- Common Market Law Review `The title is well described as both practical and engaging. It is also timely and of appeal to all academic and practitioner levels for researchers of European Union administrative law and EU law more broadly as the Great Repeal Act goes through Parliament in 2017 and we all face an uncertain future. Legal practitioners and EU policy makers mainly in the public sector will also benefit from its high level of what the editors describe as engagement with contemporary deliberations . That is exactly what you get with this important and brilliantly researched new book from Elgar. ' -- The Barrister Magazine
