Aims and Scopes

A significant focus is placed on the protection of human rights within the EU context, examining the application of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and the interplay between EU law and national legal systems. - Economic and Monetary Policy:
The journal explores the legal dimensions of economic governance in the EU, including the implications of monetary policies, market regulations, and the impact of economic crises on EU law. - Environmental and Climate Law:
Recent publications highlight the intersection of EU law with environmental issues, particularly regarding climate change, sustainability, and the legal frameworks guiding these areas. - Migration and Asylum Law:
The journal addresses legal challenges related to migration and asylum, discussing the EU's response to migration crises and the legal rights of migrants and asylum seekers within EU jurisdictions. - Digital Transformation and Technology Law:
There is an increasing emphasis on the legal challenges posed by digital transformation, including data protection, artificial intelligence regulation, and the implications of technology on EU law. - Comparative Legal Analysis:
The journal often employs comparative approaches to examine the effectiveness and implementation of EU law across different member states, providing insights into variations in legal interpretations and practices.
Trending and Emerging
- Climate Law and Sustainability:
A significant increase in publications addressing climate law reflects the EU's commitment to sustainability and environmental protection, with a growing emphasis on legal frameworks supporting the green transition. - Digital Rights and Data Protection:
The rise of digital technologies has led to more discussions on data protection laws, digital rights, and the implications of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence on personal freedoms and legal frameworks. - Geopolitical Impacts on EU Law:
Recent publications indicate a growing interest in how geopolitical events, such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine, influence EU legal frameworks and policies, highlighting the intersection of law and international relations. - Health Law and Crisis Management:
The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a surge in papers discussing health law, the EU's response to health crises, and the legal implications of public health policies within the EU. - Migration Law in Response to Crises:
There is an emerging trend in addressing migration law, particularly in light of recent crises, reflecting the EU's evolving legal stance and obligations towards migrants and refugees. - Judicial Accountability and Governance:
Increased attention is being paid to judicial accountability within the EU, examining how legal institutions uphold the rule of law and democratic principles in the face of political pressures.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Trade Law:
Discussions surrounding traditional trade law and its implications for EU internal markets have seen a decrease, potentially due to the evolving nature of trade agreements and the focus shifting towards more contemporary economic issues. - Constitutional Law in Isolation:
While constitutional law remains a relevant topic, analyses focusing solely on constitutional principles without considering their practical implications in the EU's political landscape have become less frequent. - Historical Analyses of EU Law:
There has been a noticeable reduction in papers dedicated to historical perspectives on EU law, as the journal shifts towards addressing current and future challenges rather than retrospective analyses. - Static Legal Doctrines:
Themes centered around static legal doctrines without consideration of their application in dynamic contexts are appearing less frequently, indicating a preference for more adaptable and context-sensitive legal discussions. - Non-EU Comparative Law:
The journal has also reduced its focus on comparative law analyses that do not involve EU frameworks, reflecting a trend towards more EU-centric legal discussions and analyses.
