The Principle of Effective Legal Protection in Administrative Law

This collection presents a comparative analysis of the principle of effective legal protection in administrative law in Europe. The book is divided into three parts: Part I comprises a theoretical introductory chapter along with perspectives from International and European Law; Part II presents 14 individual country reports on the principle of effective legal protection in mostly EU member states; Part III provides a comparative analysis of the country reports and assesses the influence and relevance of EU law and the ECHR. The book thus makes a valuable contribution to the debate around convergence and divergence in national administrative systems.
