This book offers the first comprehensive legal study dedicated to the understanding of the Danish EU opt-outs.

The impact of these is significant, falling as they do within Union citizenship, the euro, defense cooperation and the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice. Through a re-examination of the opt-outs individually, collectively and temporally, the book sheds light on their legal design and their interplay between international law, EU law and national law. This pioneering book takes a legal-doctrinal approach, which provides readers with a solid understanding of the opt-outs. Academics, judges and European Union civil servants will find this invaluable.

Reviews for The Danish EU Opt-Outs: Their Legal Significance, Past and Present

Such a monograph, dedicated exclusively to the legal study of the EU opt-outs as they concern Denmark, has been long overdue. This brilliant book by Christian Thorning has now been presented to the EU legal community and should be welcomed for the clarity it brings to this technical and dense area of the EU legal order ... Readers of EU constitutional law, EU institutional law, and broader spheres of European integration will find this book of great benefit. * European Law Review *
