ISBN: 9780198869481Publication Date: 2021This book explores the question of how the EU understands the ‘rule of law’ in its external relations, with a particular focus on development cooperation and enlargement. Although the EU’s commitment to the rule of law is strong, the relevant concept remains nebulous.

ISBN: 9781839108679Publication Date: 2024In this thoroughly revised new edition of what quickly became the authoritative work when first published in 2017, Fernando Castillo de la Torre and Eric Gippini Fournier, two of the most experienced litigators in EU competition law, update their systematic analysis of the case law of the EU Courts on the rules of evidence, proof and judicial review, as they are applied in EU competition law. Fairness in the public enforcement of EU competition law is closely scrutinised and therefore maintaining robust rules on the presentation of evidence, and on the burden and standard of proof is paramount, so much the more in the context of digital markets. Also critical to the EU's commitment to fundamental rights is sound procedure and the right to judicial review. All of these are carefully reviewed in this book from the perspective of those who have been closest to the cases, with the result that the authors construct a definitive yet balanced portrayal of the state of EU competition law.Judicial Review in the European Banking Union by Chiara Zilioli (Editor); Karl-Philipp Wojcik (Editor)

ISBN: 9781800371217Publication Date: 2022This insightful and timely book provides a comparative assessment of selected legal issues emerging from the EU legal context which impact profoundly on the national legal systems. It argues that judicial interaction can answer complex legal questions relating to the implementation of the EU Charter.

ISBN: 1509947302Publication Date: 2021Do independent boards of appeal set up in some EU agencies and the European Ombudsman compensate for the shortcomings of EU Courts? This book examines the operation of EU judicial and extra-judicial review mechanisms. It confronts the formal legal rules with evolving practices, relying on rich statistical data and internal documents. It covers detailed institutional arrangements, the standard of review, the types of cases and litigants, and the activity of the parties in the process. It makes visible the diverse but complementary ways in which the mechanisms enhance the authority of EU legal acts and processes. It also reveals that scarce resources and imprecise rules restrict the scope of review and hinder independent empirical investigations. Finally, it casts light on how a differentiated system of judicial and extra-judicial review can accommodate various kinds of technical and political discretion exercised by EU institutions and bodies.
