ABSTRACT
The global reach of EU law has been argued here to be a multidirectional phenomenon which offers insights into the flourishing and failings of EU integration processes. This book has sought to look beyond ‘headline’ approaches to the global reach of EU law in understanding EU rule-making. Through a closer attention to methodology (e.g. examining form, process and content), the text has sought to develop a richer perspective on rule-making. It has focused upon the dynamic between the internal and external elements of EU law and policy in various ways. As such, it has sought to bring order to them. The AFSJ provides a rich array of case studies demonstrating global reach, often multidirectional, whose unpacking is rewarding and insightful.
