This chapter examines the protection of rights in EC law. It begins by briefly sketching the context of the debate about rights. It then addresses the protective scope of relevant provisions. It is shown that Community law is still in search of a coherent and clear approach to the role and range of the protective scope of the rules concerned. Finally, the chapter reflects on how this debate could or should evolve in the future, and how legal scholarship could contribute to this.
Keywords: EU law, European law, protective scope, European Court of Justice
