Despite the progress of European integration, each European state is still functioning according to its own constitutional rules, and the Treaty of Rome has not been transformed into a European Constitution in the aftermath of the disappearance of the iron curtain, time seems ripe to identify a core of common principles forming the constitutional heritage of Europe. On the basis of an examination of the major areas of constitutional law, participants in this seminar, organised in co-operation with the University of Montpellier, examined whether, apart from free elections and the protection of human rights, there are other principles, such as the review of the constitutionality of legislation by an independent court, which may be regarded as part of such a constitutional heritage of Europe.
