Sobre la naturaleza de la responsabilidad extracontractual por los actos practicados en el ámbito de la Unión Europea por sus instituciones

Abstract

This article attempts to analyze the discussions on the extra-contractual liability of the European Union in relation to the actions of its agents and public servants, based on its institutionalism recognized by the Treaty of Lisbon. It seeks to examine the nature of such kind of responsibility for lawful and illegal acts, in addition to finding out the importance of regulating the performance of its servants, especially the duty of stealth, as well as the legal capacity of the European institutions. The methodology used has been inductive with the investigation technique of the jurisprudence analysis of the Court of Justice of the European Union. It is concluded that, despite there being no specific rule on the subject, the work of the Court has contributed, to some extent, so that the assumptions of non-contractual liability in the field of European law could be fixed.
