OverviewFollowing some ten years as a practicing lawyer and consultant, Kirstyn Inglis has been researching the evolving legal practice of EU enlargement for over ten years. This book, succinctly, introduces this evolving practice, covering 'transitional arrangements' in accession treaties, the Treaty of Lisbon, recent European Court case law, the specific governance challenge of incorporating Bulgaria and Romania and the strategy for future enlargements to bring in the Western Balkans and Turkey. In part two, the examples of the environment and the agri-food acquis are explored, including the analysis of the transitional arrangements in practice. Overall, the diversity and complexity of the pre-accession and post-accession challenge of enlargement becomes apparent, as do key challenges for the evolution of the acquis communautaire in an enlarging Union at a time when Croatia is waiting to sign its own accession treaty.

Table of ContentsIntroduction PART I EVOLVING PRACTICE IN EUROPEAN UNION ENLARGEMENT Chapter 1: Eligible candidates and procedural steps to accession Chapter 2: The Copenhagen criteria: efforts required before and after accession Chapter 3: The pre-accession strategy: from Agenda 2000 to date Chapter 4: Accession Treaties: transitional arrangements and other means to ease the impact of enlargement Chapter 5: New flexibility mechanisms in the 2003 and 2005 Accession Treaties PART II CASE STUDIES ON EC ENVIRONMENT AND AGRI-FOOD LAW Chapter 6: EC environment law Chapter 7: EC agri-food law ConclusionsReviewsInglis is one of a dedicated group of academic writers who has enhanced the understanding of the legal implications of accession - both for the Union and its Member States as well as the acceding countries - particularly surrounding the fifth and sixth enlargements to Central and Eastern Europe (and also Cyprus and Malta) in 2004 and 2007 respectively. The present volume encapsulates her profound professional and personal experiences of CEEC enlargements in the environment and agri-food (especially food safety) sectors. In addressing and analyzing the evolution of transitional arrangements in accession treaties and their intimate interconnection with conditionality, Inglis fills a critical gap in the existing literature. The author impresses the reader with her ability to explain the details and complexity of the inter-relationship between, on the one hand, transitional arrangements whether formal or informal and, on the other, the successful (or otherwise) application of conditionality on the part of the European Union.
