EU Sanctions: Law and Policy Issues Concerning Restrictive Measures

The famous "Kadi" cases have generated a wealth of articles dealing with the legal problems involved in EU implementation of UN Security Council sanctions. Less attention has been devoted to the numerous legal problems involved in the EUÆs own ôautonomousö sanctions system. The subject is nevertheless topical since there is a growing use of sanctions and the legal basis for sanctions has been changed with the Lisbon treaty. The essays in this book, written by distinguished scholars in their respective fields, deal with some of these issues.
