This timely book explores the complexities of the EU’s international economic relations in the context of its commitment to the rule of law both within the Union and internationally. It does so from three main standpoints: the ‘autonomy’ of the EU and judicial dialogue, the rule of law through treaty drafting, and the role of international courts and tribunals in upholding the rule of law.Bringing together diverse perspectives from both EU and international law scholars and practitioners, the book investigates some of the most controversial and lively issues in the field of EU external relations, such as the relationship between EU law and international investment arbitration. The contributions consider how dialogue between EU law and international law can enhance the rule of law, providing an analysis of legal issues that also offers concrete tools for overcoming the challenges that arise from them.Scholars and practitioners working in EU external relations, constitutional EU law, and public international law will find this book to be essential reading. Its critical approach will also be of great interest to policymakers in Europe and beyond.

The European Union has evolved from a purely economic organisation to a multi-faceted entity with political, social and human rights dimensions. This has created an environment in which the concept of solidarity is gaining a more substantial role in shaping the EU legal order. This book provides both a retrospective assessment and an outlook on the future possibilities of solidarity?s practical and theoretical meaning and legal enforcement in the ever-changing Union.Solidarity in EU Law examines the less explored topics of the European solidarity debate, such as the practical enforceability of solidaristic obligations in EU law and non-EU investment into the economic services of general interest via ?golden shares?, at the same time contributing to the ongoing debates on solidarity in the context of European financial crisis and immigration, asylum and border checks. The expert editors bring these fields together to create a cohesive analysis of the ways in which solidarity is becoming a principle of EU constitutional law rather than merely a philosophical or political concept.Unique and insightful, this book is ideal reading for European law academics and research students. Its exploration of the current laws on solidarity regarding asylum and human rights would also benefit advisors in non-governmental organisations, as well as legal advice professionals working with EU citizens.Contributors: J.
