Adrienne Yong: EU Citizenship Rights | sku-440329875

Adrienne Yong's Civil Rights Law Books title, sku-440329875, examines the relationship between EU fundamental rights and EU citizenship. The book argues that both aim to protect individuals, drawing on Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) case law. It argues that the relationship has weakened as the CJEU has addressed more sensitive questions about citizenship and fundamental rights.

Written after the UK-EU referendum, it attributes the decline to growing Euroscepticism since the Eurozone crisis, intensified by Brexit and arguments that leaving the EU would reduce immigration. It also considers fears of immigration beyond the UK.

The chapters examine migrant EU citizens' rights in other Member States and the fundamental human rights protections alongside their citizenship rights. The book is a hardcover volume in Modern Studies in European Law.
