Europe And The People Without History
by Eric R. Wolf Thomas Hylland EriksenOffering insight and equal consideration into the societies of the "civilized" and "uncivilized" world, Europe and the People Without History deftly explores the historical trajectory of so-called modern globalization. In this foundational text about the development of the global political economy, Eric R. Wolf challenges the long-held anthropological notion that non-European cultures and peoples were isolated and static entities before the advent of European colonialism and imperialism. Ironically referred to as "the People Without History" by Wolf, these societies before active colonization possessed perpetually changing, reactionary cultures and were indeed just as intertwined into the processes of the pre-Columbian global economic system as their European counterparts. Utilizing Marxian concepts and a vivid consideration for the importance of history, Wolf judiciously traces the effects and conditions in Europe and the rest of the "known" world, beginning in 1400 AD, that allowed capitalism to emerge as the dominant ideology of the modern era.
European Constitutional Law
by Robert SchützeWritten with exceptional clarity and fully updated from the first edition, the second edition of European Constitutional Law constitutes a classic textbook for students and practitioners of European law. Using a clear structural framework, the text guides readers through all of the core constitutional topics of EU law. Extracts from classic case law are complemented with extensive and critical discussion of the theoretical and practical aspects of the European Union and its law, leading students to a deep understanding of the subject. Chapters are enriched with more than fifty colour figures and tables, which clarify complex topics and illustrate relationships and processes. New suggestions for further reading direct students to significant pieces of academic literature for deeper self-study, and a companion website with full 'Lisbonised' versions of the cases cited in the text completes the learning package. Integrates numerous case extracts while maintaining a continuous, single-authored narrative, and combines straightforward explanations with scholarly analysis, highlighting theoretical approaches and key academic debates. A new two-colour design emphasises case extracts and enhances figures and tables, and two new appendices provide guidance on finding, reading and understanding EU law. A new companion website includes full 'Lisbonised' versions of the cases cited in the text, organised by chapter for quick and easy access.
European Environmental Law (Routledge Research In European Union Law Ser.)
by Suzanne Kingston Veerle Heyvaert Aleksandra ČavoškiEU Environmental Law is a critical, comprehensive and engaging account of the essential and emerging issues in European environmental law and regulation today. Suitable for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, the book delivers a thematic and contextual treatment of the subject for those taking courses in environmental law, environmental studies, regulation and public policy, and government and international relations. Placing the key issues in context, EU Environmental Law takes an interdisciplinary and thematic approach to help students to better understand the implementation and enforcement of environmental law and policy across Europe. It offers an accessible overview, and links theory with practical applications that will allow students to contextualise the outcomes of legal rules and their impact on public and private behaviours. It provides a definitive account of the subject, examining traditional topics such as nature conservation law, waste law and water law, alongside increasingly important fields such as the law of climate change, environmental human rights law, and regulation of GMOs and nanotechnology.
European Labour Law
by Brian BercussonEuropean Labour Law explores how individual European national legal systems, in symbiosis with the European Union, produce a transnational labour law system that is distinct and genuinely European in character. Professor Brian Bercusson describes the evolution of this system, its national, transnational and global contexts and its institutional and substantive structures. The collective industrial-relations dimension of employment is examined, and the labour law of the EU as manifested in, for example, European works councils is analysed. Important subjects which have traditionally received little attention in some European labour law systems are covered, for example, the fragmentation of the workforce into atypical forms of employment. Attention is also given to the enforcement of European labour law through administrative or judicial mechanisms and the European social dialogue at intersectoral and sectoral levels. This new edition has been extensively updated, as the EU's influence on this area of social policy continues to grow.

The European Union: How Does It Work? (The New European Union Ser.)
by Daniel Kenealy John Peterson Richard Corbett<P>Change is a constant. That has always been one of the themes of this book and it certainly applies to the European Union since the third edition was published in 2012. <P>At that time, we were still coming to grips with the new 'EU-27' (now 28). <P>The Union was in the first few years of operating under a new (Lisbon) Treaty, which created a permanent European Council President as well as something like an EU Minister of Foreign Affairs, while extending majority voting to a significantly larger number of policies.
