The United Nations and Freedom of Expression and Information: Critical Perspectives external link

Donders, Y. & McGonagle, T.
0604

Abstract

This book provides a critical and uniquely comprehensive examination of the main UN standards and mechanisms dealing with the rights to freedom of expression and information. It details the chequered history of both rights within the UN system and evaluates the suitability of the system for overcoming contemporary challenges and threats to both rights.
The book’s institutional focus comprises five international treaties, UNESCO and the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of expression. Different aspects of freedom of expression and information are foregrounded in different treaties, to ensure the effective enjoyment of both rights by particular groups, eg. children or persons with disabilities, or the meaningful application of the rights in particular situations, eg. combating racism.
The book’s thematic focus examines a selection of themes that are prompting fresh thinking about the substance and scope of the rights to freedom of expression and information, eg. the impact of new communication technologies.

Political Advertising Bans and Freedom of Expression external link

Fahy, R.
Greek Public Law Journal, pp: 226-228, 2015

Abstract

In Animal Defenders International v UK, the 17-judge Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights ruled that the UK’s ban on political advertising on television, as applied to an animal rights organisation, did not violate freedom of expression. The Court divided nine votes to eight, with the majority opinion abandoning the Court’s previous ‘strict scrutiny’ review, and laying down a new doctrine for reviewing political advertising bans. This article, first, examines the role the composition of the Grand Chamber played in the outcome of the case. Second, questions the basis of the new doctrine of review. And third, criticises the majority’s treatment of precedent.

Google Spain v. González: Did the Court forget about freedom of expression? external link

Zuiderveen Borgesius, F. & Kulk, S.
European Journal of Risk Regulation, num: 3, 2014

Abstract

In this note we discuss the controversial judgment in Google Spain v. González of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). Our focus is on the judgment’s implications for freedom of expression. First, the facts of the case and the CJEU’s judgment are summarised. We then argue that the CJEU did not give enough attention to the right to freedom of expression. By seeing a search engine operator as a controller regarding the processing of personal data on third party web pages, the CJEU assigns the operator the delicate task of balancing the fundamental rights at stake. However, such an operator may not be the most appropriate party to balance the rights of all involved parties, in particular in cases where such a balance is hard to strike. Furthermore, it is a departure from human rights doctrine that according to the CJEU privacy and data protection rights override, “as a rule”, the public’s right to receive information. In addition, after the judgement it has become unclear whether search engine operators have a legal basis for indexing websites that contain special categories of data. We also discuss steps taken by Google to comply with the judgment.

Abstract

Klacht over een column in NJB van een Advocaat-Generaal bij de Hoge Raad, redacteur van NJB, over mensenrechtschendingen in Rusland in verband met de onteigening van het olieconcern Yukos. Deze column zou de onafhankelijkheid van de rechterlijke macht schaden, omdat over deze onteigeningen ten tijde van de column procedures in Nederland liepen. De klacht op grond van artikel 13a RO wordt afgewezen, omdat dit een te vergaande beperking van de vrijheid van meningsuiting van een lid van de rechterlijke macht zou zijn.
