Abstract

The Spanish Constitution (1978) has placed the public system of the Social Security under the protection of a simple principle of law. It would have become a basic or fundamental right, if the European Constitution would have received the unanimous ratification of the members of the European Union. In spite of that, the Amsterdam Treaty and the most recent version of the Roma Treaty give powerful reasons to justify the nature of fundamental right which is own of the Social Security. This qualification must be diffused to the law prevailing in each country of the European Union.
