商品描述

Dive into the intricate world of international trade with this original analysis of Regulatory Cooperation Chapters in Free Trade Agreements (FTAs). This book meticulously examines for the first time the content, legal nature, and implications of these chapters within the European Union (EU) legal framework.

Narrowing its focus to the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) and the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement ( EU-Japan EPA), chosen for their advanced Regulatory Cooperation provisions, the book proceeds to a rich analysis and comparison of the enshrined provisions.

The book delves into the political and legal landscape that necessitated this shift towards bilateral regulatory cooperation. It explains the strategic pivot from the stalled WTO negotiations to bilateralism, highlighting the inadequacies of existing WTO rules on non-tariff barriers. This analysis prompts the question: what has changed? Using the concept of 'Legalization' as developed in political sciences, this interdisciplinary perspective reveals the increasing legalization and binding nature of these commitments, challenging the initial skepticism about their normative value.

The book further tracks the practical implementation of Regulatory Cooperation, using developments from CETA and EU-Japan EPA. It presents the two manifestation mechanisms of the Regulatory Cooperation in the EU legal order and highlights their roles in shaping EU's internal regulations. In that regard, the book challenges the legitimacy of these regulatory practices, assessing them through the lenses of input, output, and throughput legitimacy. With a view to maintain the rule of law and democratic principles, the author makes various proposals in that regard, from updated legal tools and model rules to a framework for EU Commission's decision-making capacity.

This book offers invaluable insights for policymakers, legal scholars, and trade professionals, providing a thorough understanding of the complex dynamics of Regulatory Cooperation in modern FTAs and their crucial role in shaping global trade relations.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

深入探討國際貿易的複雜世界,本書對自由貿易協定(FTAs)中的規範合作章節進行了原創性分析。這本書首次詳細檢視這些章節在歐盟(EU)法律框架內的內容、法律性質及其影響。

本書將焦點縮小至全面經濟和貿易協定(CETA)及歐盟-日本經濟夥伴協定(EU-Japan EPA),因其先進的規範合作條款而被選中,並對這些條款進行了豐富的分析和比較。

本書深入探討了促使雙邊規範合作轉變的政治和法律背景。它解釋了從停滯不前的WTO談判轉向雙邊主義的戰略轉變,突顯了現有WTO規則在非關稅壁壘方面的不足。這一分析引發了問題:究竟發生了什麼變化?利用政治科學中發展出的「法律化」概念,這一跨學科的視角揭示了這些承諾日益法律化和具約束性的特徵,挑戰了對其規範價值的最初懷疑。

本書進一步追蹤規範合作的實際實施,利用CETA和EU-Japan EPA的發展。它呈現了歐盟法律秩序中規範合作的兩種表現機制,並強調它們在塑造歐盟內部法規中的角色。在這方面,本書挑戰了這些規範實踐的合法性,通過輸入、輸出和過程合法性進行評估。為了維護法治和民主原則,作者提出了各種建議,從更新的法律工具和模型規則到歐盟委員會決策能力的框架。

本書為政策制定者、法律學者和貿易專業人士提供了寶貴的見解,深入理解現代自由貿易協定中規範合作的複雜動態及其在塑造全球貿易關係中的關鍵角色。

作者簡介

Kornilia Pipidi-Kalogirou studied Law at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. With a keen interest in EU and international law already from the bachelor years, she continued her studies with an LL.M in EU law from the College of Europe in Bruges. This academic experience broadened her academic horizons and deepened her understanding of EU law and the interaction with the international sphere. With her LL.M thesis focusing on Services Liberalization in CETA, she pursued a PhD on the then recently concluded trade agreement and EU trade law and policy in general. From September 2017 she was part of the EU funded Marie Curie Innovative Training Network on EU Trade and Investment Policy ('EUTIP ITN'), as an Early Stage Researcher ('ESR') pursuing a PhD degree at the German University of Administrative Sciences in Speyer, under the supervision of Professor Wolfgang Weiss, and co-supervised by Elaine Fahey of City University of London. Her research concentrated upon the Regulatory Cooperation Chapters of CETA and EU-Japan, especially their interaction with the EU legal order, from a legitimacy point of view. As part of the EUTIP ITN, she had the chance to participate in numerous academic conferences all over the world and publish contributions in edited volumes and academic journals of international visibility. She was also given the opportunity to carry out one academic secondment in London, and two secondments on matters close to her research in Frankfurt and Brussels. During the last year of her PhD, she was academic visitor at the IEE Institute of the french speaking Free University of Brussels (IEE-ULB). Kornilia currently works as Legal Expert at the Single Resolution Board, the EU authority for ensuring orderly bank failures and lives in Brussels. There, she provides legal expertise on governance and decision-making issues.
