The Court of Justice of the European Union is the busiest court in the world. The second edition of this textbook explores why this is. It examines in detail the interactions between European Union and national institutions, instruments, laws and concepts that make up this unique legal order. It explains the core constitutional and substantive principles that underpin the European Union legal order, and introduces EU law in a detailed, comprehensive way which is both enjoyable and clear to read. It offers an up-to-date and accessible analysis of EU law and avoids technical jargon, providing informed insights on an exciting but challenging subject. Combining a historical perspective with up-to-date examples, it aims to help students appreciate how EU law developed and its continued significance in day-to-day life. This updated edition features new coverage on free movement, online resources plus additional chapters on Article 50 and EU law in the UK after Brexit.
- Employs a historical perspective to show how EU law has evolved, allowing students to observe the process of European integration
- Places EU law within constitutional law, institutional law, and administrative law, helping students to consider what may be an unfamiliar topic in familiar contexts
- Highlights broader academic debates and offers multiple perspectives to encourage students to reflect and form their own standpoints

‘With this important textbook, Solanke brings a powerful voice and indispensable perspective to the study of EU law.’ Daniel Halberstam, Eric Stein Collegiate Professor of Law, University of Michigan
‘Iyiola Solanke’s textbook is an invaluable resource for undergraduate courses of EU law. It is clearly written and accessible, it focuses on the key elements in the operation of the EU institutional system and on the parts of substantive EU law that continue to be relevant for the UK even after Brexit.’ Bruno de Witte, Professor of European Law, Maastricht University, and Part-time Professor of Law, European University Institute
‘Professor Iyiola Solanke has written a wonderful textbook which discusses EU law in a clear and engaging style. In addition to offering a comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the Treaties and the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU (as well as Brexit and the Withdrawal Agreement), the book illuminates the social and political context of the relevant laws and institutions. It is an excellent introduction to the European Union as a whole.’ Pavlos Eleftheriadis, Professor of Public Law, University of Oxford
