Updated to include a significant volume of new case law and legislation between 2015 and 2023, it fully covers the impact of the UK leaving the EU, examining the EU's relations in this field with the UK post-Brexit - as well as the EU's relationship in this field with other non-EU countries. This edition is the definitive guide to these complex, controversial and fast-developing areas of EU law and will be invaluable to scholars, practitioners, and students in the field.
