Taking the Rule of Law Seriously – How the EU Could Foster Its Own Values

Stefan Voigt

No 24, ILE Working Paper Series from University of Hamburg, Institute of Law and Economics

Abstract: The rule of law, a fundamental value of the European Union (EU), has come under stress in a number of its member states. The EU's response to these stresses has been criticized as politicized, slow, and unassertive. This research note develops a proposal to improve the current procedure.
