Ripercorrendo le difficoltà emerse nell’inserimento di tale controversa categoria di diritti nei documenti “europei” fondamentali, ci si interrogherà quindi sull’effettivo grado di protezione che questa inclusione garantisce e sui rischi che l’insofferenza nei confronti di vincoli sovranazionali ritenuti eccessivamente penetranti può comportare. Alcuni riferimenti alle principali decisioni emesse dalla Corte Europea dei Diritti dell’Uomo e dalla Corte di Giustizia Europea mostreranno non soltanto le difficoltà interpretative incontrate nell’applicazione delle norme esaminate, ma anche l’esistenza di strumenti che possono contribuire attivamente al loro superamento2014text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=4934139(Revista) ISSN 2177-7055Seqüência: estudos jurídicos e políticos, ISSN 2177-7055, Vol. 35, Nº. 69, 2014, pags. 19-60engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
