The principle of mutual recognition represents one of the brilliant creations of theCourt of Justice of the European Union, which has significantly contributed to theachievement of the free movement of goods, in the absence of the approximation of nationallaws, and which is impressive even today by its depth and vocation to extend to new fields ofEuropean integration. Mutual recognition is one of the efficient solutions in order to haveunity in diversity and also common objectives to reach. We find the principle of mutualrecognition in the sphere of the fundamental freedoms of the internal market and in verydifferent domains of the internal market too. Judicial cooperation in civil and criminalmatters uses this principle in order to ensure the free movement of judgements and theeffectiveness of criminal proceedings. The application of the principle in very different fieldshas illustrated its utility, as well as the particularities of each area. By observing theseparticularities, we can better understand the European integration specificity in variousfields and its challenges. Our research is descriptive, explanatory and comparative, beingaccompanied by the relevant case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union.
