Dossier: Diritto di soggiorno ed accesso ai benefici sociali per i cittadini europei: verso il superamento della crisi? Riflessioni a margine della recente sentenza Florea Gusa della Corte di giustizia dell'Unione europea

Abstract

In the Flore Gusa judgement the European Union Court of Justice stated that an EU citizen who, after more than one year, has ceased to work in a self-employed capacity in another Member State because of an absence of work owing to reasons beyond his control retains the status of self-employed person and, consequently, a right to reside in that Member State. This judgement represents a step forward compared to that Dano. After the judgement Florea Gusa, the rules of secondary legislation (directive 2004/38/CE) are once again used as instruments of social integration and promotion of intra-European mobility of nationals of the Member States.
