A citizens' Europe

The political and legal nature of the European Union cannot be properly understood without exploring the meaning of Union citizenship and its environment, particularly the more general political aspects of the process of European integration. This book illuminates the concept of a citizens' Europe from both a legal and a political science point of view. Leading experts describe and analyse the constitutional nature of the European Union, the integration process, the principle of subsidiarity, and the concepts of equality and citizenship. They examine the rights conferred on citizens, including electoral and other political rights as well as social rights, the status of third-country nationals, and the remedies and means of redress available to European citizens and residents. This authoritative study of European citizenship and its legal and political context will be invaluable for students, administrators, lawyers and policy makers.
