Abstract

Is the European Constitution a modern version of political myth? The ample collection of European laws have become the normative basis for the functioning and existence of an enormous amount of different kinds of institutions. These laws particularly limit the power of State authority in the Member States. International law has taken on the character of external obligation, an issue that could be discussed elsewhere in the area of philosophical law, which precisely aims to cover this sphere of reality. What are arguments for and against the  description of a European order with reference to this concept? The aim of this article is to present European constitutional ideas and an analysis of the Draft of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe from the point of view of the changes the European constitution has introduced into the discourse of philosophical law.
