PRIMARY LAW IN EUROPEAN UNION AND ROLE OF RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES

Summary/Abstract: European Union law as a relatively young “legal formulation” in legal discourse represents a complex legal system created in the process of European unification and it plays a very important role in the overall process of European integration and globalization. Over the past 50 years, the European Union law which consists of primary, secondary and national laws has gone through a thorough conceptual and substantial expansion. Primary law is the most important source of the European legal system. Primary law consists of EU accession treaties. Together with secondary law and national laws, primary law represents sui generis of the European society. The role of religion and faith in the European Union law is very notable because European Union law is based on historical, cultural, political, religious and other contents of European society. The very fact that religion has its place in the primary law in process of European integration led to a more open and more present discourse on religion in all segments of European society.
