European Public Procurement: Commentary on Directive 2014/24/EU [Kietas viršelis]

On the one hand, the book is very easy to navigate. It serves as a good starting point for those seeking to gain a quick understanding of the Directives provisions, as the articles are addressed in a clear and structured manner, and references are made to both the ECJs case law as of 2020, further literature, and some developments in the national case law mainly from the contributors national jurisdictions. On the other hand, the commentary goes far beyond merely describing and categorizing the Directives provisions. Instead, the authors engage in a critical analysis of the articles and place them in a broader context. They highlight issues of application and interpretation that are inherent in the Directive, thereby also spurring further academic and policy discussions. -- Dagne Sabockis, Common Market Law Review This book is an essential companion to the directive. Bringing together a brilliant team of experts on EU public procurement law, this commentary is rich with perspective on the directive, what brought the EU to construct its language as it has, and what to make of the rules and the policy thinking behind them. The book is a benefit to those seeking to fully understand the EUs policy and practice where public procurement is concerned. This is a striking, substantial contribution to scholarship where procurement law, beyond simply EU procurement law, is concerned. -- Christopher L Atkinson, Public Organization Review The editors are leaders in the field of public procurement law and have assembled an unrivalled set of authors from across Europe to provide an authoritative commentary of the crucial mother of all procurement regulation Public Sector Procurement Directive 2014/24/EU. Here you will quickly find all there is to know about the Directives Articles 1 to 94. There are hardly any alternatives to this useful work and this commentary might well achieve the same importance for Directive 2014/24/EU as the Palandt has for German civil law. Procurement lawyers might come to say: quod non est in Caranta/Sanchez-Graells., non est in mundo. -- Martin Trybus, University of Birmingham, UK and Member of the Procurement Review Board of the European Space Agency, France 'This Commentary is one of the most valuable additions to the public procurement literature for years. It combines the advantages of a legal commentary of the continental European tradition (comprehensiveness, structure, depth, etc.) with comparative perspectives, cutting-edge research, and the necessary contextualization, to understand the interactions between the Directive and the complex national systems of administrative and public law. The outstanding editors as well as the 36 contributors from 18 European countries deserve much praise for this important book!' -- Martin Burgi, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany
