Los derechos procesales fundamentales en los procesos penales en la Unión Europea

Resumen

The present essay aims to study the regulation of rights and criminal procedural guarantees which the European Union is carrying out, principally, as of the 2009 Roadmap assumed by the Council and incorporated to the 2009 Stockholm’s Roadmap which established the multi-year measure’s calendar (2010-2014) to progress in a true area of freedom, security and justice in the EU. The Roadmap joined together a series of measures –rights and procedural guarantees- in which an influence was mainly required. At the end of the set period, three directives in the Roadmap’s development have been dictated, when another three were already being processed. However, it could then be examined the extent of the success or failure in the Roadmap’s development and in the progression of the pursued objectives, as in determine which have been the principal obstacles to it.
