EP made a lot of declarations and documents; the court of justice made cases to be peoples’ fundamental legal origin. 　 　　Human right is the core value of EU. EU asks countries which have bad human rights records to change those, and believes that human right has universal values. Human right is also the purpose of EU’s diplomacy. Nevertheless, it seems difficult to go on when EU’s human rights policies meet the influences of international political and economical benefits. Especially, EU’s human rights diplomacy to China is a clear evidence to prove what above I said. 　 　　Making a completed description and estimation about EU’s human rights legal system and policies is the purpose of this thesis, hoping to make people understand it more clearly.
