A new and fully revised edition of Josephine Shaw's highly successful European Community Law (1993). This volume concentrates on the institutional framework, and on delivering a clear introductory text on the fundamental constitutional principles and basic substantive law of the EU which has serious critical 'bite'. Reviews of the first edition of Volume One: 'This is the finest nutshell on European Law currently available. It gives a concise overall view of the field and incisive analyses of the topics which would feature in most EU law courses. It is an ideal companion to students working with any Case & Materials book.' - Professor Joseph Weiler, Manley Hudson European Law Research Centre, Harvard Law School `an excellent introductory text on EC law...well organised for teaching purposes. It is very accessible to non-lawyers; reading it drew my attention again to the neglect of EC law in political science courses on integration.' - Brigid Laffan, Journal of Common Market Studies `a well structured and lucid account with a number of attractive features.' - Richard Young, Yearbook of European Law
