Publication alert: The Normative Foundations for EU Criminal Justice, by Jacob Öberg

The Normative Foundations for EU Criminal Justice, Powers, Limits and Justifications by Jacob Öberg is out now

Should the European Union regulate criminal justice? This open access book explores the question forensically, establishing whether a compelling normative justification for EU action in the field exists.

It develops an integrated standard based on the perspectives of the effective allocation of regulatory authority between the EU and the Member States, representation-based political theories, and harm-based theories of criminal law. This is a work that will be welcomed not only by EU criminal law scholars, but also by practitioners, judges and policymakers.

Jacob Öberg is Full Professor of European Union Law at the Law Department at the University of Southern Denmark.
