The book examines the law of the free movement of goods and services. These two freedoms are fundamental to the Community's internal market and form the basis for an ever-increasing number of economic transactions as the markets of the Member States become more integrated. The book focuses in particular on the relationship between the freedoms, asking whether the same principles can be applied in both fields.The book begins by analyzing the economics of trade in goods and services, and the general legal background. The aim is to establish whether goods and services ought, as a matter of principle, to be treated similarly by Community economic law. The book then moves on to investigate whether the European Court of Justice has in practice applied similar principles in both areas. This is examined in three contexts: the scope of the freedoms, the author of the restrictions, and the issue of the justifications are all analyzed. In the case of a divergent approach, the reasons for the differences are explored, and the possibilities for a uniform solution are investigated.The book also tackles some general questions of EC law. The nature of the internal market is discussed in the context of the scope of the freedoms. The questions posed are whether the internal market is unitary or federal in character and how the theory of regulatory competition should affect the interpretation of the Treaty free movement rules. The relationship between competition law and free movement provisions is addressed in the context of private restrictions to free movement of goods and services. The discussion of the proportionality of restrictions offers a chance to examine the division of power between the courts and legislatures.

This innovative new textbook takes a cases and materials model (balanced perfectly with expert commentary to guide the students) which maintains a keen focus on those areas studied by the student of EU law.Avoiding the approach of most other textbooks, whose comprehensiveness serves to overwhelm the student, EU Law: Cases, Materials and Text is structured to map the mainstream curriculum. This allows for the inclusion of more materials, with short extracts drawn from a wide range of sources. These serve to tease out themes and to provide a clear sense of direction for the student navigating a sometimes complex subject. As a first edition, it is structured to accurately reflect the law of the EU post Brexit, with a dedicated chapter on the emerging UK-EU relationship.Written by two authors who are both leading scholars and experienced teachers, this offers a new, fresh resource for students and teachers alike.

While the internal market has been at the heart of the European project from the very beginning, it has rarely been the subject of sustained and comprehensive scholarly examination in its entirety. In the face of profound legal, political and policy pressures, this timely Research Handbook reflects on the cutting-edge issues, horizontal themes and the big questions which illuminate the shape of the internal market. It places the law and policy of the internal market within the context of the financial crisis and the existential questions this has raised for future European integration. In a departure from existing literature in the field, expert contributors approach the four freedoms as a functional whole and identify horizontal and overarching themes that have emerged over the years. The Research Handbook on the Law of the EU's Internal Market addresses six overarching themes: the reach of the internal market, the relationship between economic and non-economic interests, the internal market as an economic union, uniformity versus diversity, the governance and politics of the internal market, and the internal market in the world. This perceptive Research Handbook will be fascinating reading for academics and students in EU law and European studies. It will also be an invaluable resource for practitioners, policy makers, and anyone interested in the future of the internal market in particular and European integration in general.Contributors include: C.
