The Concept of Marriages of Convenience in EU Free Movement Law: EU and UK Perspectives: Immigration and Asylum Law and Policy in Europe, cartea 53
Autor Aleksandra Ancite-Jepifánovaen Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 oct 2024
In this book, Aleksandra Ancite-Jepifánova pursues two interrelated aims. First, she evaluates the compatibility of EU-level measures addressing marriages of convenience with EU free movement law by focusing on the Citizenship Directive. Second, she examines the regulation of the issue in UK law in so far as it concerns the residence rights of EU citizens and their family members, both pre-and post-Brexit.
