EU Citizenship's Future

Abstract

The CJEU asserts that "Union citizenship is destined to be the fundamental status of nationals of the Member States." Yet perceptions of EU citizens "abusing" their rights to free movement within Europe lead to calls to restrict rights of EU citizenship and free movement, and the refugee crisis places in question the Schengen system of no internal border controls within the common European space. Given such developments, the future prospects of European Union citizenship demand analysis. The papers on this panel address the question of EU citizenship's future from a variety of perspectives.
