THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE INSTITUTION OF THE EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP IN THE INTERNATIONAL LAW
Journal Title: Challenges of the Knowledge Society - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 0
Abstract
Romania’s adhesion to the European Union has given a stronger impulse for the examination and better understanding of the European Community regulations which become a part of our own legislation. In this context, the interpretation and execution of legal provisions regarding citizenship, the status of foreigners and that of people who are not citizens of any other state, present multiple significations and implications regarding social, political and even economical life of our country. The European citizenship is a flexible institution which serves the inhabitants of the member states. It is to be mentioned that the purpose of this institution is not to substitute national citizenship, but to complement it. On the other hand, the internal legislation of the member states – which is rather diverse and controversial in most cases – has the role to regulate the access of the citizens to the European citizenship. Citizenship is a complex process, which implies maintaining a negotiated social integration, which refers to all those living the today’s Europe and who, starting today, have a support point for the future.
