Los derechos sociales en la Constitución y el juez de Luxemburgo

Abstract

The constitutional recognition of social rights raises the problem of their legal effectiveness. In most cases, their guarantee depends on the law that specifies their content based on generic constitutional principles. In the European multilevel system of rights protection, the Court of Justice of the European Union plays an important role. In this regard, the preliminary reference procedure allows a dialogue between the national judge and the judge of the Union that displaces the constitutional judge in the protection of some rights in the social field.
