Abstract

The European Court of Justice ECJ has played a major role in the expansion of the boundaries of right to free movement by interpreting the EU citizenship provisions of the Treaty. The paper analyses the case law of the ECJ, highlighting the most important decisions in this field and their enormous effects on the way citizenship is construed. Although, the Court was initially reluctant, it has moved from market interpretation that is economic citizenship to political citizenship and then it extended right of citizenship to non nationals. As of the new Citizenship Directive, it is more than a consolidation and summarise the innovation of jurisprudence of the Court whilst recasting the contents of the abolished directives in the wording of residence entitlements

Özet

Avrupa Adalet Divanı ATAD , AT Antlaşmasının vatandaşlığa ilişkin hükümlerini yorumlarken serbest dolaşım hakkının sınırlarının önemli ölçüde genişlemesinde çok önemli rol oynamıştır. Bu makalede ATAD’ın vatandaşlığa ilişkin hükümlerin yorumlanması konusundaki en önemli içtihatları analiz edilerek getirdiği yorumların altı çizilecektir. Başlangıçta ATAD isteksiz olmasına rağmen, daha sonraki içtihatlarında iç pazar anlamında yani ekonomik vatandaşlık yorumundan politik vatandaşlığa doğru evrilmiştir ve vatandaşlığa ilişkin hakları vatandaş olmayanlara da teşmil etmiştir
