Shifting Perspectives on the European Public Prosecutor's Office (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This book provides answers to the following questions. Is there a bright future ahead

for a European Public Prosecutor's Office? If so, is the regulation establishing the office

sufficiently clear and balanced to attain that goal? Moreover, will the office be able to

effectively fight fraud now damaging the EU's budget and will it respect the fundamental

rights of the parties involved?

Included are issues ranging from EU substantive and procedural criminal law, combatting

EU fraud, the distribution of competences in European law enforcement,

EU fundamental rights, to forum choice. The book's aim is to inform academics,

policy-makers and criminal law practitioners about key issues surrounding the

attribution of prosecutorial powers to an entirely remodelled European Union body. In

doing so, it sheds light on this body, as fundamentally changed bythe Council, which

will undoubtedly have a greater impact on the European criminal justice system than

the European Arrest Warrant ever did.

Dr. Willem Geelhoed is Assistant Professor in criminal law and criminal procedure

at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands, and Drs. Leendert H. Erkelens

and Prof. Mr. Arjen W.H. Meij are both Visiting Research Fellow at the T.M.C. Asser

Instituut in The Hague in The Netherlands, while the latter is also Honorary Professor

at the University of Luxembourg.
