This collection provides a comprehensive account of the content and implications of the 'common values' that are emerging in the present constitutional debate upon the future of the European Union. The consolidation of values in EU constitutional discourse is addressed in the collection from a range of legal political social and historical viewpoints all of which investigate the effects of constructing the emerging Constitution for Europe upon a set of core values which represent a consensus among member and candidate states of their vision of the Union whilst also maintaining respect for cultural and national diversities.
