    El sistema internormativo, comprehensivo y en constante evolución de protección de los derechos fundamentales, progresivamente construido dentro del sistema jurídico de la Unión Europea, y ahora codificado en el Carta de los Derechos Fundamentales de la Unión Europea (CDFUE), se asienta sobre un equilibrio entre la estructura y los objetivos del proceso de integración europea y la protección de los derechos fundamentales. Tras repasar algunos de sus más importantes pasos para demostrar cómo la protección de los derechos fundamentales se ha sedimentado en el corazón de la encrucijada constitucional de la Unión, el presente texto intenta sistematizar las coordenadas para la aplicación de la CDFUE a los Estados miembros con la base en la jurisprudencia del Tribunal de Justicia, sobre el art. 51.1 CDFUE. La propuesta formulada proporcionará el marco de referencia para el análisis de la saga Taricco como el ejemplo más reciente de la intrincada complejidad de construir el delicado y crucial equilibrio mencionado.

    The internormative, comprehensive and constantly evolving system of fundamental rights protection progressively built within the European Union legal system and now coded in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (CFREU) lies on a balance between the structure and the objectives of the European integration process and the protection of fundamental rights. After retracing some notable steps in order to demonstrate how the protection of fundamental rights has been sedimented at the heart of EU constitutional crossroads, the present text attempts to systematize the coordinates of the application of the CFREU to the Member States on the basis of the relevant ECJ case-law regarding art. 51(1) CFREU. The proposal will provide the frame of reference for the analysis of the Taricco saga as the most recent example of the intricate complexity of building the aforementioned delicate and crucial balance.
