"The requirements for the award of public contracts and for legal protection under public procurement law are largely determined by Union law. However, the implementation of these requirements in the EU member states takes place in the most varied of variants. This volume analyzes the French form of implementation, which is characterized by a uniform - administrative law qualification of procurement contracts and a largely indiscriminate application of specific procurement law legal remedies in the upper and lower threshold area. Dominik Römling assesses French procurement procedural law in the light of EU law requirements and compares its essential properties with the structural characteristics of German procurement law and legal protection."
