Summary
I : The shared values of fundamental rights, democracy and the rule of law are understood as the bedrock of European societies. Fundamental rights violations in some member states have been characterised as systemic or reaching the level of a humanitarian emergency.10 These two problems relate to the internal dimension of the EU asylum policy. Violeta Moreno-Lax has argued, though, that in the more recent chapters of the process of EU’s constitutionalisation, in priming ‘autonomy’ as an end in itself, the EU has reached a point of axiological vacuum which poses problems of legitimacy and is contrary to the rule of law itself.38 Beyond these initial indicia, a deeper understanding as to the scope and content of the EU rule of law can be gained through scrutinising its interrelation with fundamental rights
