Handbook on European Nuclear Law provides systematic analysis and evaluation of the competences of Euratom Community conferred under the Euratom Treaty. The historical aspects of the origin of the Euratom Treaty constitute important background information that helps one to understand the competences of the Euratom Community. While the European Economic Community has evolved through the decades into a legal entity of the European Union (EU), the substantive law contained in the 1957 Euratom Treaty was never amended. Recurring legal discussions of the treaty’s potentially obsolete nature give rise to this much-needed handbook.
