An ambitious assessment of the increasing importance of case law in the field of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice on the evolution of EU law, though the prism of the contribution of one of its leading exponents. In recent years the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) has occupied an increasingly prominent place in the working of the European Union and by extension the Court of Justice (CJEU). None have done more to inform and impact on this growing jurisprudence than Lars Bay Larsen, Vice President of the CJEU. In this magisterial collection, leading academics, practitioners and jurists critique, assess and celebrate that legacy. Over three parts the book looks at the framework of the AFSJ, its workings, and finally the impact of EU law upon it. The collection provides remarkable insights into the growing importance of the AFSJ and how EU law has evolved in light of this.
