    État de droit et droit de l'Union européenne - Deuxième partie
    in Revue de l'Union européenne/Revue du Marché Commun et de l'Union européenne , n. 545, février ,  2011 ,  96-116
    The second part of this article includes a comparative study of the western concept (European and American) of a state of law and of the state of law concept in the rest of the world. That comparison study leads us to identifying items in domestic legal systems that could be part of a possible universal definition of state of law. One of such items, i.e. the issue of whether the state of law requires compliance with basic rights, is greatly controversial; yet reviewing international law and practice provides a universal accepted - and positive - answer to that question. Lastly, the second part of the article allows to initiate a though on the role of the state of law in the European Union's foreign actions in light of the universal definition of the state of law that is offered in it.
