Schengen still going strong: evaluation and update

Book abstract:

This volume contains a broad selection of issues that are related to Schengen and the wider ambit of Justice and Home Affairs cooperation in the European Union. Politicians from the inside, senior civil servants, practitioners and academics were invited to contribute to the seventh Schengen colloquium organised by the European Institute of Public Administration in Maastricht. The themes covered in this volume include: the challenges of a double EU-Schengen Presidency, the legal and institutional incorporation of Schengen into the EU, the impact of Schengen on justice and home affairs cooperation in the EU, the position of the associated countries and the Nordic Union, bilateral and multilateral initiatives, mutual legal assistance, Europol's role in controlling illegal immigration networks, cross-border police cooperation, the external border situation in Mitteleuropa, and national and European parliamentary control. In short, it is a book which addresses the dominant topics in the development of an internal security regime within Europe.
The texts are either in English, French or German.
