Summary/Abstract: The article observes the main steps of the evolution regarding the freedom of movement of the persons, assuming that the original spirit of the Treaty of Rome has suffered an essential reverse since the Community market became the European Union. It is considered that EU lacked the political will to put in practice an adequate approach capable to tackle the security challenges the European area was recently facing to. Instead of having a controlled labour market and economic migration, EU is bound to quickly adapt its procedures in order to ensure a safe and secure environment in its immediate neighbourhood. Notwithstanding, the political landscape of the member States require an enhanced treatment with a view to fight against phenomena connected to the unregulated migration flow.
