European Union Law

Oxford University Press has published European Union Law edited by Professor Catherine Barnard and Professor Steve Peers (University of Essex). This new text book also includes chapters by other Cambridge Faculty members Professor John Spencer, Dr Albertina Albors-Llorens and Dr Alicia Hinarejos, and offers a unique perspective on the EU law field, covering the whole undergraduate curriculum by bringing leading voices to bear on each topic. 

This new EU law textbook draws together a range of perspectives from experienced academics, teachers and practitioners from a number of jurisdictions to provide a comprehensive introduction to EU law. Each chapter has been written by an expert in the field to provide you with access to a broad range of ideas while offering a solid foundation in the institutional and substantive law of the EU.

Written by experts yet designed for students, every chapter has been reviewed by both students and lecturers to ensure a balance of accessible explanation and critical detail. Case studies are included throughout the book to enable you to understand the context and implications of EU law, as well as helping to familiarise you with some of the most significant caselaw in the area. Quotes and examples from key EU legislation and academic sources are also included to help develop your understanding of EU law, while further reading suggestions for each chapter act as a springboard for further study and assessment preparation.

The first edited collection for students, this new text provides a fresh and modern guide to EU law and is an ideal entry-point for students new to the subject as well as those looking to develop their understanding of EU law.
