Beskrivning

Both in WTO law and EU law there is a dichotomy between liberalisation based on market access and targeting domestic regulation. Consequently, both regimes share the problem of distinguishing national measures impairing market access and those that do not have such effect. Looking at the provision of services, a cornerstone of EU substantive law, in the EU and the WTO this book offers a comprehensive evaluation of the current legal status quo on transnational services provision on a global level. Based on thorough analysis of both EU and WTO law, policymakers are provided with concrete proposals for fostering the consistency and effectiveness of the current regime. A final chapter discusses possible approaches to regulation such as home state rule, host state rule and mutual recognition from a comparative perspective. Written by a highly respected author team, this is essential reading for EU internal market specialists and WTO law scholars alike.

Recensioner i media

'The present monograph is a welcome treatise on services in the EU and the WTO. The author has done enormous works having analysed two systems of services regulation not in isolation but having tried to make a systematic comparison. Both the EU and the WTO system are looked at from a different angle, which gives an opportunity to discover new constellations and issues. The present monograph is a useful and recommendable work for readers who wish to deepen their knowledge and understanding both of the General Agreement on Trade in Services and regulation of services in the European Union law.' Marina Trunk-Fedorova, Yearbook of European Law
