The free movement of people is a central principle of the European Union, constituting one of the fundamental rights guaranteed by Community law. This fundamental freedom has its roots in the free movement of labour, the implications of which have long been of interest to policy-makers and scholars alike. The history of the European migration regime addresses how Europe's postwar migration regime evolved into the system of open migration that exists today among member states. Comte draws on comprehensive archival research conducted in Berlin, Paris and Brussels, which serves as the basis for a detailed analysis of the evolution of European Economic Community (EEC) law from 1947 to 1992. In examining this evolution, Comte's central focus is on how the principle of the free movement of labour managed to strengthen over time among the countries of the EEC. The book is organized into five different chronological periods. Comte begins by exploring the early development of ‘the European migration regime’ from 1947 to 1954—a distinctive approach to migration that evolved based on several concurrent factors, including the specific national interests of states concerning the free movement of people; pronounced inequalities between states; and the conscious weighing of national as opposed to European needs. The concept of the free movement of people served as a catalyst for further discussions and debates among states concerning European identity and what this entailed
