Human dignity in the European perspective and the proportionality principle
Journal Title: Athenaeum. Polskie Studia Politologiczne - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 52
Abstract
The fundamental human right to dignity is the cornerstone of European legal culture. The right has been provided for in international, European, and national legal instruments. Its role as a benchmark reference for all other human rights has developed into a self-standing and self-executing right, especially under the new EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. This evolution from the traditional role of the right to dignity is in case study based on a real case before the Constitutional Court of the Czech Republic in 2015. Th e analysis brings forward a reflection about the need to respect the concept of dignity and how it actually is observed in the European context.
