‘The book as a whole represents a significant achievement as well as a mile marker in the development of EU law. After years of growth, the administrative organization of the EU is perhaps ready for a phase of doctrinal consolidation and refinement. With a sophisticated grasp of the current state of EU law and a well-stocked toolbox of relevant concepts and structures, Ruffert charts what that next phase could entail. Those with an interest in the future of EU administration would do well to read the book.’
