Description
This innovative book identifies and explains the concepts that determine whether the EU may act.
In so doing, it shows that 'competence' is about more than competence alone: there is also power. Rigorously examining case studies drawn from case law, legislation and archival evidence, it illustrates how competence and power differ and why this distinction leads to a more nuanced and precise analysis of whether the EU may act. This book will be of interest to EU scholars, but also to international law specialists.
