The range of contributors, their expert knowledge and the ability of many of the contributors to go beyond a discussion of the text of legal instruments, to understand their impact on migrants and asylum is why this is an interesting book. For any reader seeking a detailed understanding of the recent evolution of EU law in this area, the book represents a useful contribution. Dr Sonia McKay Transfer Vol 13, No 3, Autumn 2007 The first (huge) merit of this collection of extremely high-level essays is that it takes on the entire issue and gives a general overview to shed light across the board...The other major interest of the book is that all the authors make a no-holds-barred critical analysis, with many criticising the authoritarian and discretionary nature of EU policies. MT European Library No 9528/751, Oct 07 How can the authors analyse the post-Tampere developments toward the harmonisation of ' freedom, security and justice ' for all asylum seekers when the meaning of post-Tampere dignity through 'freedom', 'security' and 'justice' remains elusive?...The dilemma is ably grappled and readers looking for insightful, if somewhat pessimistic, reflections on this issue will welcome this collection. Lisa Yarwood International Journal of Refugee Law vol 20, no 2, July 2008 This collection of essays is certainly one of the outstanding contributions to the rapidly developing EU law on migration and asylum law and policy. Kay Hailbronner Common Market Law Review Vol 45 issue 4 ... this books is a serious and encyclopedic text. It explains and critiques how we got to where we are now in relation to EU free movement, immigration and asylum law. The format, a collection of essays, allows different views and perspectives to be expressed. Despite the passage of time since its publication, this book remains relevant and is important reading for persons interested in European immigration and asylum law and policy as academics, law makers, policy makers or campaigners. It also contains much practical information (such as case law and possible arguments) of interested and use to practicing lawyers and the judiciary.
