    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This Research Handbook comes at an opportune time, and provides a comprehensive and wide-ranging exploration of relevant developments concerning disability rights at EU level. It also looks beyond the EU, focusing on how disability has been relevant in EU external relations. In addition, the Research Handbook considers the interface between EU disability law and Council of Europe law.

    Expert contributors address key questions related to the scope and impact of EU disability law, examining its compliance with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and the gaps that remain to be filled in implementation by the EU. Analysing the most important and recent developments in EU disability law, the chapters in this Research Handbook trace its evolution, and assess the extent to which disability rights are protected and promoted in various strands of EU law and policy. The chapters highlight the connections, overlaps and inconsistencies which exist across those strands.

    This thought-provoking Research Handbook will be a valuable resource for scholars; researchers and students of disability law, EU law and international law; as well as practitioners, policy makers, civil society organizations and European think tanks engaged with the fields of EU and international disability law.

    This Research Handbook comes at an opportune time, and provides a comprehensive and wide-ranging exploration of relevant developments concerning disability rights at EU level. It also looks beyond the EU, focusing on how disability has been relevant in EU external relations. In addition, the Research Handbook considers the interface between EU disability law and Council of Europe law.

    'This volume represents an indispensable, well-written, and very in-depth tool for those who study the rights of people with disabilities, at European and international levels. It presents a comprehensive and accurate overview of the history and development of EU disability law, accompanied by specific insights on issues and rights, ranging from the freedom of movement of people with disabilities to the copyright law or consumer law and disability. This book has the merit of involving scholars and experts with different backgrounds, tracing an accurate map of disability law.'
