Legal Challenges in EU Administrative Law

'But European administrative law is a work under construction. This book helps to explore the current state of affairs.' -- Thomas Gross, Common Market Law Review 'Drs Hofmann and Turk made a name for themselves in the field of EU administrative law with their first collection of edited essays, EU Administrative Governance (Edward Elgar) 2006, which was well reviewed and made an important contribution to the subject. The focus of their new collection, Legal Challenges in EU Administrative Law, is accountability, internal through structures and procedures and external through courts and auditors. With its many useful contributions from well-known experts it promises well.' -- Carol Harlow, London School of Economics, UK

Edited by Herwig C.H. Hofmann, Professor of European and Transnational Public Law, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg and Alexander H. Trk, Professor of Law, Kings College London, UK
