Details

This open access book looks at the development and consolidation of EU disability law as a distinct field of enquiry.

It provides novel approaches to studying EU disability law. In a departure from other books on the topic, it takes a contextual approach, both engaging with current debates and policies and providing rigorous legal analysis. In addition to looking at the 'how' of the field's development, it addresses the 'who' by charting the key stakeholders in the field. This is an insightful and innovative take on an increasingly significant field of EU law.
