Whereas the acquis seems to live a dull and uninteresting life between periods of enlargements, it also seems to be one of those immensely important concepts that always finds its way into the headlines of newspapers, magazines, journals and news bulletins when enlargement is on the agenda.
Joseph Weiler describes the acquis in his usual vivid language: "The holiest cow of all has been the preservation of the acquis communautaire and, within the acquis, the Holy of Holiest is the constitutional framework of the Community" (1997: 98).
Thus, both flexibility and acquis: "flexible solutions will have to be found, fully respecting the single institutional framework and the "acquis communautaire"; both adjustment and maintenance of the acquis: "Maintenance of the 'acquis communautaire' should not, however, prevent the necessary adjustments from being made in order to respond to new situations.

This may be part of the reason why one adviser to a central European government said that negotiating with the EU reminded her of negotiating with the nomenklatura in the old Soviet Union.
One immediate question that should occur to anyone is how the acquis communautaire, which involves accepting everything that has gone before, can be compatible with the principle of subsidiarity - that decisions should always be taken at the lowest feasible level - which was introduced in the Amsterdam treaty of 1997.
And whatever the lawyers may say, there is undoubtedly a conflict of spirit between subsidiarity and the acquis communautaire.

 RSC Working Paper, No 98/35, Wiener, Antje, The Embedded Acquis Communautaire Transmission Belt And Prism of New ...
The "accession" acquis was the oldest concept of acquis which defined "the whole body of rules, political principles and judicial decisions which new Member States must adhere to, in their entirety and from the beginning, when they become members of the Communities" (Gialdino 1995, 1090).
That is, while the core of the acquis is formed by formal resources such as legal procedures, treaty provisions and directives, these formal resources are not independent from previously established informal resources such as shared values and norms, on the one hand, and routinised practices and policy objectives, on the other.
For the concept of embedded acquis communautaire, the ECJ's informal or formal adherence to the concept of binding precendent which has a particular importance for common law legal cultures, is another dimension which requires further theoretical elaboration which would lead beyond the limits of this paper, however.

 Impact analysis on EU accession; myths and reality - Turkish Daily News Aug 05, 2006
Turkey has to comply with 35 chapters of the European Union body of law widely referred to as the “acquis communautaire.” As even EU commentators sometimes have difficulties in fully assessing the pros and cons of a particular law or legal document, analyzing the sum total of the EU legal framework requires profound study.
The fact that there is an acquis does not pose problems for a candidate country as such as long as it fully analyses its content and proposes alternatives or exemptions to the European decision makers.
The acquis is constantly in motion and while it is perhaps more difficult to influence the current legal body it is certainly possible (and necessary) to actively influence the on-going and future regulatory process.

On this basis, the Master Copy of the draft codified acquis will be available by the spring of 2005 (for acts to be adopted by the European Parliament and the Council or by the Council alone) and by the autumn of 2005 (for acts to be adopted by the Commission).
One advantage of the codification of the acquis will be to identify those texts where a recast would be appropriate and to state the legal problems to be addressed in such a recast.
An interim evaluation is foreseen for March 2003, with a view to assessing the scope for publishing the whole of the codified acquis in the languages of those Candidate Countries acceding to the European Union on 1 January 2004 (insofar as a decision is taken to this effect).

These evaluations were grouped together, along with other proposals accompanying the accession process, in a document entitled "Agenda 2000." In its recommendations to the member states, the commission made a distinction between those countries that were in a position to incorporate the acquis communautaire in the medium term and those that were not.
The one-joins-when-one-is-ready approach, combined with the strict enforcement of the acquis from the earliest phases of the integration process, makes the race for entry into a very unequal one and brings no stability to unstable countries.
In March 2000, we measured the popularity of the center-right governments in the so-called laggard countries—governments that were otherwise celebrated as democratic when contrasted with successor communist parties or nationalists (Freedom House survey run by the Romanian Academic Society).
