EC Law

Intended as a study aid for law students, covering law subjects at every level from A level and degree level to Law Society and Bar exams, this book on EC law is part of the "SWOT" series. "SWOT"s point out the problems which will be encountered by the student throughout the course, indicating the common pitfalls which contribute to under-achievement or failure in exams. The books in the series are written by experienced law lecturers who are themselves examiners. Years of watching students make the same mistakes time after time have convinced them that these mistakes could be avoided if students followed a carefully structured approach to exam technique. "SWOT"s enable readers to face their exams with confidence and increase their chances of success. This title provides an introduction to the growing area of EC law. It concentrates on the principal rules of the Community legal order and its resultant case law. Examination-style questions and answers are included, and the answers given are designed to show the method in answering the question as much as the actual substance of the answer. Recent new cases and all case references are included. The numerous changes introduced by the Treaty of Amsterdam (1999) are discussed where appropriate and the re-numbering of the Treaties is dealt with throughout the text.
