Summary/Abstract: The European Union system has left its mark on the states that joined in a greater extent than they have managed to change the system. The logic of the European system was that the states should adopt the communitary acquis. There were also cases where a State has succeeded in imposing a norm, an EU institution or a concept, if there were no European legislation or better, more practical, coherent and democratic in the legal system of that state. The political consequences of globalization and modernization in the EU’s impact are ambiguous, because it gives rise to Euroscepticism and openness. EU integration has assumed an attitude, a process that was delayed by the lack of direct experience with the social reality of the Community.
