Join us for the Oslo academic launch of the Research Handbook on EEA Internal Market Law (Edward Elgar Publishing, 2025), in which some of the contributing authors will offer their perspectives. The comprehensive volume delves into the intricacies of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) pillar within the European Economic Area (EEA). With contributions from leading academics, judges, and practitioners, this new book offers an in-depth analysis and systematic examination of EEA internal market law, based on EEA primary and secondary law, EFTA Surveillance Authority practice, and EFTA Court case-law.
The handbook is aimed at EEA/EFTA academics, judges, students, civil servants, law firms, national courts, policymakers, and private practitioners. It, and this book launch, seeks to deepen the understanding of EEA internal market law and its unique features.
