it was the objective from the beginning
- 2 founding principles
o Equality of the member states -< EU was created after WW2
so equality was necessary
o Sincere cooperation -< idea: good faith towards the European
Union -< act in good faith =< difficult to act into practice
- Both looking at the level of the EU and the member states
- EU does also support common market,… -< these are objectives, no
values
- In fact the values are not always closely followed by other member
states -< for example Hungary -< the values in art 2 matter a lot, so
we have to fight to protect this values

art 6 + democracy values are found in art 10

economics)

customs tariffs + common approach of goods outside the area

every country in Europe

and area without internal frontiers -< difference is very important
, here you have the right to move without internal border control
instead of only the right to move

policy, mobility of judgements, because crime can easily move -< shaping
policy area’s that go much further than economics

than economic integrated organization

monetary and economic policy

free trade area

< allows these 3 EFTA states to be part of the EU internal market -<
trade goods with Norway in the same way as to Germany -< free
movement of goods, workers, …
o Switserland is not part -< but in a way but not as advanced as
these three others
- EU and Norway -< No passport control
=< EU is not the only form of regional integration in EU + EU
interacts with other states (what has decided in EU can have
consequences outside the EU: Norway)
