Abstract:
This book investigates how liberalization of service provision related to movement of natural
persons takes shape within EU and WTO law. It provides an overview and analysis of the
implementation of the identified obligations derived from EU law and the GATS in the Dutch
legal order and that of the United Kingdom. A thorough investigation of the chosen strategies
in each legal order is provided, including a comparison of the differences and similarities
between these strategies. The resulting overview leads to insight into the tension that exists
between the international obligations related to service mobility of the two investigated states
on the one hand, and their migration law and access to the labour market legislation on the
other.
