Lecturer Katarina Trimmings; Paul Beaumont Conflict of Laws Books listing for Child Abduction Within the European Union, a hardcover in the Studies in Private International Law series. The first part examines the development of a separate intra-EU child abduction regime and the EU's legislative drafting during negotiations on the Brussels II bis Regulation.

It argues that EU involvement and a stricter return mechanism under the 1980 Hague Abduction Convention were not legally needed. The second part reports a statistical survey of the Regulation's child abduction provisions in their first year of operation, discusses concerns raised by the findings and considers whether the Regulation added value.
