Reihe: Collected Courses of the Academy of European Law

Provides a current analysis of the tensions between European market integration and the provision of public services
Examines the underlying systemic difficulties of opening public service provision to free market standards
Includes case studies of major public service sectors to have been impacted by EU law - public service media and healthcare

In a period when the nature and scope of the European internal market is hotly contested, this collection offers a topical analysis of the most pressing issues relating to market integration and public services in the EU. As the debate continues over the balance between state control and market freedom, questions are also raised about the relationship between EU regulation and national policy choices and the 'joint responsibility' of the Union and the Member States.

Outlining the most important current issues relating to market integration and public services in the EU, this book also addresses the underlying, systemic questions of the relation between public services and markets, and services and the consumer. Chapters also examine the application of state aids and procurement law to public services. The final two chapters focus on two public service sectors where the mix of Treaty rules, case law, and legislation has operated in rather different ways: public service media and health services
