This collection examines what 'critical theory' contributes to the study and understanding of EU law.

It illustrates how a rigorous engagement with critical social theory helps to navigate the post-crisis European legal landscape. This engagement extends to a range of fields of EU law including constitutional law, economic law, fiscal integration, fundamental rights, climate law, external trade law, and the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). It reaches past the borders of the EU, looking at critical theory and transnational legal regimes. The contributors, experts in their fields, bring a fresh, thoughtful and innovative perspective to EU law and theory.
