Synopsis
The Research Handbook on European Social Security Law critically examines the various European dimensions of social security. The collection discusses a wide range of questions and dilemmas ensuing from the present state of European social security law, whilst at the same time identifying future lines of inquiry that are likely to dominate the discourse in the coming years.This Handbook encompasses numerous dimensions of European social security law, including: social security as a human right; standard setting in social security; the protection of mobile persons and migrants; as well as the global context of European social security law. It pays attention to both EU law and to various instruments of the Council of Europe. Throughout the book's chapters prominent experts analyse contemporary debates, discuss new challenges and point out further lines of research. Via this exploration, the Handbook provides a source of inspiration for the development of this special field of law. Covering a breadth of topic and research, scholars and practitioners alike will find this Research Handbook to be an invaluable source of information. Contributors: P. Borsje, S. Burri, P.

'Written (only) by lawyers, the book can serve as a valuable research tool for scholars from the legal discipline. After all, as the last chapter states, 'European social security law is likely to remain a lawyers' paradise.' -- European Journal of Social Security 'The 22 chapters of this book explore the length and breadth of European social security law. That field is sometimes divided into harmonizing rules, which set minimum standards, and equal treatment rules, which do not affect the standards so much as the groups entitled to them. Equal treatment on the grounds of nationality is central to the coordination of the social security -- rights of migrants. Human rights, finally, can raise standards as well as the number of their beneficiaries. This rough partition shines through the structure of the book.'- Nicolas Rennuy, Common Market Law Review
