Résumé
On 30 January 2020, in response to the globalisation of COVID-19, the
World Health Organization declared a Public Health Emergency of
International Concern. The deadly outbreak has caused unprecedented
disruption to travel and trade and is raising pressing legal questions
across all disciplines, which this book attempts to address.
The
aims of this book are twofold. First, it is intended to serve as a
“toolbox” for domestic and European judges, who are now dealing with the
interpretation of COVID-19-related legislation and administrative
measures, as well as the disruption the pandemic has caused to society
and fundamental rights. Second, it aims to assist businesses and
citizens who wish to be informed about the implications of the virus in
the existence, performance and enforcement of their contracts.
Coronavirus and the Law in Europe
is probably the largest academic publication on the impact of pandemics
on the law. This academic endeavour is a joint, collaborative effort to
structure the recent and ongoing legal developments into a coherent and
pan-European overview on coronavirus and the law. It covers practically
all European countries and legal disciplines and comprises
contributions from more than 80 highly reputed European academics and
practitioners.
