Originating in the June 1998 joint conference of the United Kingdom Association for European Law (UKAEL) and the University Association for Contemporary Studies (UACES) and edited by David O'Keeffe and Patrick Twomey,this book brings together a collection of essays that offer critical insights into the institutional and substantive changes to the European Community and Union resulting from the Treaty of Amsterdam. With a preface by Lord Slynn of Hadley, the collection includes essays based on the conference presentations of Joseph Weiler, Anthony Arnull, Alan Dashwood, Franklin Dehousse, Hans Ulrich Jessurun d'Oliveira and Laurens Jan Brinkhorst and some twenty other essays offering the reflections and criticisms of leading academics in the field as well as the unique insights of contributors working within the Community institutions.
With its mix of analysis and prescription by a veritable Whos Who of European Union law, this is a must read for any serious student of European integration. Not only do the contributions place the Amsterdam Treaty in the context of preceding constitutional and legal developments, but they also suggest a possible course (or courses) for the future: Legal Issues of the Nice Treaty perhaps? Catherine Redgwell Law Quarterly Review February 2003 Legal Issues of the Amsterdam Treaty is an ideal instrument for getting a proper account of the Amsterdam Treaty, the process leading to it and its implications the collection is an excellent reference for assessing the EU constitutional reforms and also for understanding the intricacies of an ever-more complex process.
