Details

This innovative book explores potential amendments to the Classic EU Procurement Directive (2014/24/EU), building on the existing debate surrounding the reform of this instrument. Each chapter contains in-depth analysis on the most important and timely legal discussions in the field of procurement law and puts forward concrete ideas for ongoing reforms.

Expert contributors introduce and discuss potential reforms, examining notions that reflect on the directive’s scope. Chapters focus on the importance of improving and fostering competition, highlighting the instrumental use of public procurement competition rules and analyzing the expansion of the rules on contract performance. In addition, the book explores emerging issues such as greening the EU, climate change and social injustice, among other key topics. Overall, this book serves to spur academic and policy debates in order to inform and drive future change in EU public procurement law.

Reforming EU Public Procurement is a crucial resource for students and scholars of public procurement law, European law and commercial law. Practitioners, NGOs, lobbyists, think tanks and representative bodies involved in the legislative process will benefit from the novel ideas for interpretation of legal concepts and their implementation in this book.
