Law of the European Union

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Law of the European Union
Leerdoelen	Upon successful completion of the course Law of the European Union, students will be able to understand, apply and analyse the core aspects of EU substantive law, including: - The fundamental freedoms of the EU internal market, and their relationship to other policy areas in EU law; - EU citizenship; - The basic principles of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice and its relationship to the EU internal market; - The relationship between the fundamental freedoms and fundamental rights; - EU competition law; - The external relations of the European Union and the relationship between the Union’s internal and external policies; - The enforcement of EU substantive law at EU-level and national level, and the basic principles of judicial protection in the EU.
Omschrijving	This course focuses on the substantive law of the European Union, with particular emphasis on the fundamental freedoms of the EU internal market, fundamental rights, EU citizenship, EU competition law and the external relations of the EU. Students are expected to be familiar with the basic principles of EU constitutional and institutional law, as covered by the first-year course Introduction to International and European Law. The course also provides an introduction to the enforcement of EU substantive law both at EU-level and national level, and the basic principles of judicial protection. These topics will be discussed in greater detail in the third-year LLB course EU Law of Judicial Protection. The two weekly lectures discuss the general theory and doctrine of the topics covered by this course. The weekly workgroups focus on the practical application and analysis of these topics. Particular attention will be given to the ability to apply EU substantive law in favour of one particular side of a dispute, which is the core activity of lawyers, instead of trying to find “the one right answer”. Active participation in the workgroups is mandatory. The assessment is based on a written exam.
