Keywords: rule of international law; execution of international obligations; interdependence
Summary/Abstract: The issue of establishing the relationship between domestic and international law which is the prerogative of the sovereign State is still present, although the crystallization of the doctrines in this regard were mainly the concern of authors in Public International Law in the nineteenth century. In the context of Romania's accession to the European Union, the relationship between national and EU rules has been very clearly established by the Romanian Constitution, revised in 2003. The effective respect of the rules of international law by States includes the process of enforcement of obligations which they have assumed by treaties to which they are a party or by a certain conduct as part of a customary rule. Adopting a conduct in order to give effect to the rules of international law or a conduct contrary from the rules and principles concluded by States has an influnece on the issue of relantionship between the international law and the domestic law. In this context, it may be of interest to examine whether between international law and the norms of domestic law emerges a relationship of subordination or interdependence.
