Abstract (may include machine translation)

In this paper we analyze the state of the debate on the Rule of Law challenges and developments in the
European Union leading to the release of the 2019 Commission Communication ‘Strengthening the Rule of
Law: A Blueprint for Action’ and provide a detailed assessment of the Communication itself. We explain why
the short-sighted approach of the Commission gives rise to worry. All the boxes seem to be ticked during this
discussion and reflection exercise, many a conclusion are drawn; yet, the outcome has seemingly brought
the Commission nowhere.
