Constitutionalizing the act of justice in the European Union
Constitutionalizing the act of justice in the European Union

Summary/Abstract: This study addresses a component of the constitutionalization process at the Union level, namely the act of justice, considering its importance for the evolution of the constitutionalization process. The significance and importance of the constitutionalization of the act of justice are analyzed, as well as the premises and mechanisms of the constitutionalization of the act of justice in the European Union, with particular reference to the jurisprudence of the Romanian Constitutional Court. In this context, the control of constitutionality appears as a decisive modeling factor of the normative action of the legislator and even of the public policies. The constructive dialogue – if we refer to the two legal orders, national and supranational – is all the more necessary, being noticeable the key role played by national courts – and in particular constitutional courts – in defending the rule of law in the European Union, including through their collaboration with the CJEU in cases and through the instruments provided for in the Constitutions and the Treaties.
