Judicial Independence today is facing, particularly in Europe, new threats emerging from populist political regimens. After a structural analysis of the main constraints to the upholding of an independent judiciary, some indications are listed, in a very brief note, to better affirm, at the level of the judiciary, the values of Democracy and Rule of Law, assuming an "ethics of practical responsibility".

Commencing with an ironic parallel with some concepts of economic sciences, the author calls for an active solidarity of all jurists to safeguard a plural Europe, affected by a severe crisis. Firmly based on the thoughts of the honouree Cunha Rodrigues, the crucial importance of a homogeneous and trustworthy European Judiciary is also emphasized, in order to strengthen advances already provided by European Union Law, especially through the creative and innovative case law from the Court of Justice of the European Union. ; A partir de uma irónica analogia com alguns conceitos das Ciências Económicas, o autor reclama por uma ativa solidariedade dos juristas na salvaguarda de uma Europa plural, imersa hoje numa grave crise. Ancorado no pensamento do homenageado Conselheiro Cunha Rodrigues, enfatiza-se igualmente a importância crucial de um judiciário europeu homogéneo e merecedor da confiança dos cidadãos de forma a consolidar os progressos já proporcionados, no passado recente, pelo direito da União Europeia, em particular por força da jurisprudência criativa e inovadora do Tribunal de Justiça da União Europeia.
