The respect of private life - a fundamental right for a person
The respect of private life - a fundamental right for a person

Summary/Abstract: The current article wishes to analyze one of man’s fundamental rights, that of the respect owed to one’s private life; this right is regulated by both the European Convention on Human Rights, as well as in the Romanian Constitution and the Civil Code. The latter is a distinct regulation. Once the New Civil Code was passed, Title II of the First Book offers an entire chapter dedicated to the respect owed to the human being and its inherent rights, a chapter in which the right to a private life is as important as the right to life, health, integrity, the right to dignity as well as the respect owed to a person after its death. The present article involves a three sided analysis, regarding constitutional law, civil law and criminal law, as we can’t leave out the criminal aspects generated by the disrespecting of this right. Thus, the lawmaker found appropriate to incriminate crimes as trespassing, violation of professional secrets, violation of private life, disclosure of professional secret.
