As supranational European law is largely based on a wide range of European legal traditions, it has a unifying effect on law throughout the region. Its influence has been further strengthened by the integration of legal professions and services in European countries, including mergers between law firms, and by the internationalisation of higher education in Europe, including the study and teaching of law. As economic and political integration progresses and cross-border trade contributes to greater unification of contract, labour and economic law, it is likely that European law will increasingly become Europe`s universal law.

However, Europe`s common legal heritage was strengthened by the separate development of continental and English legal traditions (from the 11th century onwards). ), the rise of sovereign nation-states claiming exclusive jurisdiction over their territory (mainly in the 17th century) and obscuring right-wing nationalism (in the 19th century). At the end of the 20th century, however, the economic integration promoted by the European Community led to a renewed interest in European law. This has occurred in parallel with the weakening of some of the characteristic features of civil law and common law traditions in modern bureaucratic states.
For example, the pervasive growth of modern economic regulation legislation and the administrative and judicial bodies that oversee it has reduced both the central use of comprehensive codes in civil law systems and the organic development of jurisprudence in common law systems. The economic reasons behind the development of European integration are important. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that common tradition and history are important elements of European identity. In this perspective, the fact that continental legal systems are based on the achievements of the Roman legal system is very important.

More frequently and specifically, however, European law refers to supranational law, in particular of the European Union, which brings together most national legal systems within Europe. The European Union (EU) is the most important source of supranational European law. Since 1957, when the European Economic Community (EEC) was created with the limited aim of establishing a common economic market in Western Europe, the law of the EEC and its successor organizations has gradually extended the scope of their competences to many aspects of European economic and political life.
