| Summary: | The first part of this book reviews the multi-level system of protection currently operating in Europe and its constitutional implications. The book presents an analysis of the Charter from a legal, political and practical standpoint. It further examines the activity of the European Parliament as a fundamental rights actor, as well as the right to a fair trial and to effective judicial protection before and by the EU Courts. The second part of the volume addresses the impact of a binding Charter on specific areas of EU Law. The order of the contributions in this volume reflects the structure of the Treaty on the functioning of the European Union: free circulation of persons; the internal market; the area of freedom security and justice (civil and criminal aspects); social rights protection; environmental policy; enlargement; international trade and the Common Foreign and Security Policy.
