The purpose of this Article is to analyse evolutionary trends in the interpretation of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) by the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). To achieve this goal, a wide range of general philosophical methods were used. The Article submits that the ECHR has shown a growing commitment to the evolutionary method of interpretation, using the doctrine of a "living instrument", the ECHR, which is particularly important for Member States with specific problems, although this method limits the scope in the discretion of the State. It is concluded that the interpretative methodology used by the ECHR involves the use of its methods, including increasingly developing methods of consensus, efficiency, judicial activism, comparison, innovative interpretation, autonomous method, and "balance" method. This demonstrates, inter alia, the unlimited potential to improve the ECHR's interpretation of conventional standards. In the context of modern transformations in the direction of proactive international justice, judicial activism objectively departs from a formal application of legal norms and reflects the ECHR's desire to protect the fundamental human rights of individuals and communicatethem.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze recent developments in the protection of human rights of undocumented migrants and identify unresolved controversial issues in this field. In the current international situation, undocumented migrants continue clearly to face problems concerning their status and their rights, in particular, those who have entered the territory of the State illegally (illegal entrants) or have stayed illegally even if they initially entered legally (migrants who have stayed longer than the law or their permits allow). At the UN level, the tendency in the last twenty years has been towards a gradual development of a more precise framework regarding in particular the situation of migrant workers. Furthermore, regional bodies and regional human rights law provide general standards applicable to specific cases. In particular, the European system of human rights and the inter-American system of human rights offer mechanisms to assess the respect of the commitments by States under international human rights law. It should be pointed out that European Union has been also developing a practice to handle the situation of undocumented migrants. Thus, this paper deals with the protection of human rights of undocumented migrants in two different contexts: Europe and America, analyzing different systems: on the one hand the European Convention on Human Rights System and the European Union, and, on the other and Inter-American System. The progress in the practice of these regional systems in relation to the protection of undocumented migrant is described and the points of convergence between systems as well as controversial are highlighted.

The European Convention on Human Rights is an international treaty signed by the forty-seven States of the Council of Europe to protect human rights and establish the right to individual petition that can be lodged with the European Court of Human Rights. The right to free elections is enshrined in Article 3 of Protocol no. 1 of the Convention. This right has two aspects. Firstly, it has an institutional aspect: the obligation to hold free elections at reasonable intervals by secret ballot in conditions which ensure the free expression of the opinion of the people on the choice of the legislature; Secondly, it has a subjective aspect: the right to vote and to stand for election. The Court recognizes a wide margin of appreciation in the field of right to free elections. From 1951 to 2017, there were 204 cases of violation of Article 3 of Protocol no. 1.

Freedom of expression and association are essentials to guarantee the opening of the democratic system, but they can also be exercised to undermine its foundations. For this reason, the Council of Europe was determined to establish a system capable of dealing with anti-democratic threats. This spirit is reflected in the European Convention on Human Rights. The European Court of Human Rights, when evaluating whether a particular political agenda can take part in the democratic process, has established a dual requirement: that the means used to implement it are pacific and that the political project advocated is democratic. Therefore, the democratic defence of an anti-democratic project can be legitimately excluded. According to it, the Court has formulated in Refah Partisi v. Turkey a doctrine of preventive defence of democracy that raises complex and sensitive questions.
