| Abstract: | The concept of citizenship is a relatively new one in the European Community ambit, for it was the Treaty on European Union (1993) which introduced for the first time a systematic concept of citizenship through articles 8 to 8e. However, most of the rights and characteristics attached to the concept of citizenship were partially outlined within the scope of the Rome Treaties and the Single European Act. Whilst the new concept of citizenship means an upgrading of the condition of individuals under Community law, it has not superseded the preponderance of the concept of nationality of each Member State.
