Review Quotes:
"Brexit is not only a matter involving the United Kingdom and the European Union. It also has far reaching external implications which this timely collection explores. The Handbook is a welcome contribution to the study of the multifaceted consequences of a state's withdrawal from the EU."
Christophe Hillion, University of Oslo, Norway, and Leiden University, The Netherlands.
"This research handbook offers the most comprehensive overview to date of the legal implications of Brexit from the perspective of EU external relations law and international law. While much has been written on the internal consequences of Brexit, for the UK and the EU - and as the parties engage in complex negotiations on the framework of their future relations - this edited collection sheds light on the effects that Brexit poses for international treaties and international organizations, identifying the challenges and the options ahead."
Federico Fabbrini, Founding Director of the Brexit Institute, Dublin City University, Ireland.
"Now that the United Kingdom has exited the European Union, its relations with many of its trading partners will be regulated by an unfamiliar mix of Union and international law. This timely volume seeks to bring some order into what might otherwise look like chaos, learning the lessons of the withdrawal procedure itself and identifying a variety of topics that will require the urgent attention of politicians and lawyers in the coming years. It is a must for any Brexit library."
Kieran Bradley, Former Special Brexit Adviser to the EU Court of Justice.
"This volume provides an invaluable guide, based on the best available understanding of the potential obstacles that may be encountered and the manifold ways in which they might be met. It is a volume that may be consumed by the specialist, who may identify even further unanswered questions, or the perplexed generalist, who may dip in and out to marvel at Brexit's complexities or seek clarification on an isolated issue."
John Cotter, Keele University, UK
