It goes on to analyse the prominent position held by the Court of Justice within the institutional system of the EU subsequent to the Treaty of Lisbon of 13 December 2007, to give a better understanding of how this institution has been able to make such a decisive contribution to preserving and consolidating EU integration. The work concludes by thinking over whether there exists a government of judges within the European Union. Key words: Court of Justice of the European Union; Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union; principle of direct effect; Bauer and BroBonn ruling; judicial governance; European Union.
