At a time when the European Union is continuing with its enlargement agenda, this book deals with the pre-accession and post-accession challenge of enlargement from a legal standpoint, with particular emphasis on the implications for the agri-food and environment acquis.

Following some ten years as a practicing lawyer and consultant, Kirstyn Inglis has been researching the evolving legal practice of EU enlargement for over ten years. This book, succinctly, introduces this evolving practice, covering ‘transitional arrangements’ in accession treaties, the Treaty of Lisbon, recent European Court case law, the specific governance challenge of incorporating Bulgaria and Romania and the strategy for future enlargements to bring in the Western Balkans and Turkey. In part two, the examples of the environment and the agri-food acquis are explored, including the analysis of the transitional arrangements in practice. Overall, the diversity and complexity of the pre-accession and post-accession challenge of enlargement becomes apparent, as do key challenges for the evolution of the acquis communautaire in an enlarging Union at a time when Croatia is waiting to sign its own accession treaty.

Kirstyn Inglis qualified as a Scottish solicitor in 1990 and moved to Brussels to specialise in European law. Later, she shifted into academic research, defending her PhD thesis at Ghent University (2006). She is now Post-doc Research Fellow (FWO) there.
