Justice and Home Affairs is one of the fastest expanding areas of research in European Studies. The European response to security concerns such as terrorism, organised crime networks, and drug trafficking as well as to the challenge of managing migration flows are salient topics of interest to an increasing number of scholars of all disciplines, the media and general public. This handbook takes stock of policy development and academic research in relation to justice and home affairs and analyses the field in an unprecedented thematic depth.
The book comprehensively investigates the field from the perspective of the three dimensions central to European integration: the sectoral (policies), the horizontal (states, regions) and the vertical (institutions, decision-making) dimensions. It also discusses the most important theoretical approaches used in this research area and provides the reader with a state of the art picture of the field.
By adopting such a comprehensive and broad-based approach, the handbook is uniquely positioned to be an important referent for scholars, practitioners and students interested in the area of justice, home affairs and European politics.
‘This handbook is a real tour de force: It combines cutting-edge insights into substantive aspects of decision-making, policy change and the external dimension of EU justice and home affairs with an unmatched exploration of advances, challenges and promising new avenues of research in this dynamic EU policy domain. It sets a new standard and will be a stimulating companion for anyone working in the field.’ - Jörg Monar, College of Europe, Belgium.
‘This excellent book provides a major and authoritative review of the main theoretical, sectoral, geographical and institutional aspects of EU Justice and Home Affairs cooperation. With its comprehensive coverage and in-depth analyses, it is an essential resource for both incoming and established scholars working in the field.’ - Sandra Lavenex, University of Geneva, Switzerland.
‘This Handbook is a success on at least two levels. First, it brings together leading experts to get to grips with the dynamics of cooperation and integration on JHA issues. Second, it provides a wealth of information that makes it essential reading for anyone wanting to understand these important issues.’ - Andrew Geddes, European University Institute, Italy.
