FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IN THE EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS

Summary/Abstract: The paper examines freedom of expression as one of the fundamental human rights and a cornerstone of a democratic society. Particular emphasis is placed on the right to freedom of expression within the framework of the European Convention on Human Rights, with a focus on the normative content of Article 10and its interpretation in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. The paper explores the significance of this right for the functioning of democratic institutions, public debate, and the protection of pluralism of opinions. Special attention is devoted to the relationship between freedom of expression and freedom of thought, as well as their interdependence. The limits of this right are also examined, particularly the possibility of its restriction under prescribed conditions, through the application of the principles of necessity and proportionality. The aim of the paper is to assess the scope and importance of freedom of expression in the contemporary legal order, as well as its role in safeguarding democratic values.
