Victima potenţială în cauzele Curţii Europene a Drepturilor Omului privitoare la măsurile secrete de supraveghere: între recurs individual şi actio popularis
Potential victim in European Court of Human Rights cases regarding secret surveillance measures: between individual applications and actio popularis

Summary/Abstract: The European Convention on Human Rights offers individuals the possibility to file an individual application, where they claim to be a victim of a violation of the rights guaranteed by the Convention. Normally, individuals cannot choose to file an actio popularis, by generally criticizing national authorities’ practices or the legislation enabling such practices. The specificity of mass surveillance cases has led to the creation of an autonomous European notion that bridges the individual application and the actio popularis: the notion of a potential victim.
