See moreThis collection discusses who counts as an expert and what constitutes expertise by introducing the perspective of legal experts. It covers legal experts in various occupations: legal advisors in EU or national bureaucracies or civil society organisations, lawyer-lobbyists in the private practice, and legal academics.
The first socio-legal study of legal experts and their influence on EU policy-making at national, European, and international levels.
This edited collection examines the changing role of the legal profession as experts in the context of European Union policy-making. Drawing on theoretical and empirical research and the idea of law as a social and political practice, this socio-legal work brings together a group of legal scholars and political scientists to investigate how lawyers, through the deployment of their expertise and knowledge, act as experts in matters of EU related policy-making at the national, European and international levels.
Law, Legal Expertise and EU Policy-Making provides new theoretical viewpoints and untold stories from legal experts themselves. It promotes an evolving definition of what constitutes legal expertise and what shapes legal experts in a time when experts are in equal measure both revered and ignored, and introduces new critical voices in the field of EU socio-legal studies.
