Sažetak
The right to free movement of EC nationals encompasses their right to be joined by family members and the right of these family members to be integrated into the host Member State by being granted certain rights, such as the right to obtain employment. This paper discusses the nature, beneficiaries, legal bases and spectrum of the right to family reunification. The discussion offers a detailed analysis of current developments in the area and gives answers to a number of issues raised by existing Community legislation and case-law. Recent trends promulgated by the ECJ's case-law show signs of a changing approach towards family reunification, leading to acknowledgement of the right to family life as a legal basis for family reunification in cases where movement has occurred but cannot be used as a basis for applying Community law.
