Details

Handbook on European Nuclear Law provides systematic analysis and evaluation of the competences of Euratom Community conferred under the Euratom Treaty. The historical aspects of the origin of the Euratom Treaty constitute important background information that helps one to understand the competences of the Euratom Community. While the European Economic Community has evolved through the decades into a legal entity of the European Union (EU), the substantive law contained in the 1957 Euratom Treaty was never amended. Recurring legal discussions of the treaty’s potentially obsolete nature give rise to this much-needed handbook.

What’s in this book:

Following the structure of the Euratom Treaty, the author analyses and evaluates the scope, content, exercise, and case law of the Euratom Communities’ competences in the following fields:

promotion of research, with reference to the horizon research programmes;
dissemination of information;
health and safety, including environmental protection;
investments;
joint undertakings;
nuclear supplies;
safeguards;
property ownership of fissile materials;
the nuclear common market; and
the Community’s external relations.

How this will help you:

With its systematic, chapter-by-chapter analysis of competences of the Euratom Community under the Euratom Treaty, this book will be welcomed by lawyers and negotiators working in the nuclear field, researchers in nuclear law and in the broader competences of the EU, and policymakers in the European nuclear sector, and it will prove to be a user-friendly and an easy-to-use handbook.
