Abstract
Research Handbook on EU Law and Global Challenges (edited by Jed Odermatt and Ramses A Wessel) explores the multifaceted ways in which the European Union addresses global challenges at the international and EU level.
The EU’s commitment to international law, multilateralism and addressing global challenges is enshrined in the EU Treaties.
The EU is also committed to delivering the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the Union and beyond.
It addresses these challenges in different ways. In some circumstances, the Union does so primarily through internal legislation and policy.
The EU’s internal action may then set a benchmark for action by other states.
In other fields, the EU seeks to address global challenges by being active on the international level, such as by influencing the developments in international organizations or through the negotiation of multilateral treaties.
In this online writers’ workshop, authors will present and discuss their draft chapters.
