Abstract

TATHAM, Allan F. Diffusing EU Law beyond the Borders of the Union: The Judicialization of the European Trading Area. colomb.int. [online]. 2014, n.81, pp.27-66. ISSN 0121-5612.

The European Union (EU) lies at the heart of a network of free trade agreements (FTAs), negotiated with partner countries in Europe and beyond. Within such a context, this paper focuses on the extent to which the judicialization of trade policy in the Union and its diffusion externally have impacted on states which are members of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), reflecting the process of Europeanization as a manifestation of the Union external governance.

Keywords : European Union; free trade agreements; judicialization; european trading area; trade policy diffusion; europeanization; European Free Trade Association.
