The General Data Protection Regulation

has established a uniform European data protection law. The member states must directly apply European law standards and question their own interpretation criteria.

The new major commentary on the GDPR

is written by leading European lawyers who have extensively analysed the European and transnational academic discourse. The commentaries take into account the existing approaches to interpretation at national level, place them in a European legal environment and thus impress with new arguments that also offer new possibilities in contentious proceedings.
