Law comparison and globalisation and unification of Europe

The second part of the 20th century saw the development of multiple links of global character, which brought about the notion of globalisation. Therefore, it is justified to inquire whether the research of political systems of individual democratic states makes sense and whether constitutional principles constituting the grounds for their existence and the existence of their institutions are not deformed by the uniformisation processes. The development of European integration also poses the questions concerning the future of classically understood internal law, thus the perspectives of comparative research. The thesis is corresponded by the notion of the emergence of a new decision-making subject in the EU, i.e. its citizens. The answer requires defining the character of the EU and the role of the EU law in the member states´ legal systems. It follows from the discussion so far that the constitutions of the EU member states have retained their legal significance. Thus, the existing notional apparatus and research methods remain still valid, while the research of the constitutional law, including comparative research, makes sense. The member states, facing the same or similar external challenges and internal problems, solve them not only with the aid of the EU institutions but also adopting in their internal legal systems certain systemic measures verified in other member states.
