How do we shape European unity in diversity? The rule of law is lacking in our legal community because it is divided into 24 official languages and dominated by English. With their interdisciplinary development of legal linguistics and the reference language system, Claus and Karin Luttermann lay the groundwork for a clear EU law based on subsidiarity principles that would promote European identity, economic prosperity and peace.
