Abstract

Following two cases of the dismissal of Muslim women workers for wearing the Islamic veil at the workplace, the Court of Justice has analyzed the impact of anti-discrimination law on religious freedom and freedom of enterprise. In the present work, departing from the analysis of the Judgments of the Luxembourg Court examines the Court’s position on some relevant issues of the theory of fundamental rights, especially the question about their horizontal effect.
