KSLR European Law Blog hereby invites you to submit abstracts on the topic of “2013: European Year of the Citizen

 

A ringing declaration from the EU institutions heralded 2013 as European “Year of the Citizen”, instigating debate suited to our call for papers. The KSLR European Law Blog is interested in hearing what the general public have to say regarding this topic, in all fields ONLY RELATED TO EU LAW and from all European perspectives. This would include whether the declaration is to be commended, if there have been steps to retain its promises and your opinions as to the choice of European “Year of the Citizen” in the current European atmosphere. Articles on changing EU environmental law, EU consumer protection, EU competition, EU human rights, EU company law, EU criminal and immigration law as well as other topics influencing EU citizens’ rights in a broad sense are welcome.
