Abstract

This book critically examines how and why Eastern enlargement has impacted on the EU human rights policy. By drawing on the EU's intervention in human rights provision in Romania before 2007, it is demonstrated that the feedback effects of this intervention have led to the emergence of an EU child rights policy. Eastern enlargement has also raised the profile of Roma protection, international adoptions, and mental health at the EU level. The impact of these developments has been further reinforced by the constitutional and legal provisions included in the Lisbon Treaty. It is argued that Eastern enlargement has led to the emergence of a more robust and well-defined EU human rights regime in terms of its scope and institutional clout. This book makes a substantial contribution to the scholarship on EU enlargement, Europeanisation and EU human rights policy by providing empirical evidence for the emergence and persistence of EU institutional and policy structures upholding human rights.

Abstract

This edited collection critiques, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the growing body of EU children's rights activities in the light of broader political, economic and legal processes. Specifically, it interrogates whether EU intervention effectively responds to what are perceived as violations of children's rights and the extent to which EU efforts to uphold children's rights complement and reinforce parallel national and international pursuits. Moreover, it scrutinises the compatibility of EU children's rights measures with the principles and provisions enshrined in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). [...] insgesamt vermittelt das Buch profunde Einblicke in die verschiedenen Bereiche und Handlungsansätze der EU-Kinderrechtspolitik und regt dazu an, sich genauer mit ihr auseinanderzusetzen. socialnet.de, 24.03.2016
