Charta der Grundrechte der Europäischen Union. Kenntnisse und Informationsinteresse.

This working paper is based on the Distinguished Lecture given by Advocate General Kokott at the Academy of European Law Summer School on 29 June 2010. ; This working paper examines the legal nature, interpretation and scope of application of fundamental rights in the European Union in light of the Charter of Fundamental Rights. The authors review the sources of fundamental rights protection and confirm that this protection, as applied prior to the Charter coming into force, remains in effect. In spite of the Charter, due regard should continue to be given to the shared constitutional traditions and the case-law of the Strasbourg Court, in particular when it comes to the interpretation of the Charter. The paper also addresses issues that arise with regard to the future accession of the Union to the European Convention of Human Rights. Additionally, close examination of the position of EU fundamental rights in the legal order of the Union reveals that Member States are bound by these rights only when they act within the scope of application of EU law. The Charter does not alter this system either. Finally, following discussion of the opt-outs from the Charter, it is concluded that the overall impact of the Charter is likely to be anything but revolutionary. Moreover, the paper offers a special perspective on EU fundamental rights: it suggests that the Kücükdeveci case reaches beyond the Charter in that it introduces direct horizontal application of an EU fundamental right in cases of age discrimination. However, the authors also caution that this judgment should not be overrated, as it seems unlikely that the Court intended to systematically extend the effect of EU fundamental rights.

LL.M.(Melit.) ; Presidents of different nations used the war rhetoric when addressing their nations in justifying the implementation of drastic actions to halt the contagion of the Coronavirus. One of the main areas which is continuously being discussed on the media around the world, is that Covid-19 has led to suppression of certain liberties. Suppression of liberties raised riots and protests, as fundamental human rights were being limited. An in-depth examination will take place on whether the fundamental human rights of European citizens are being suppressed. This study shall involve a comparative examination on how Member States have reacted to the human rights conflicts arising within their nation. From such comparative approach, one would be able to evaluate the outcome of whether fundamental rights safeguarded within the European Union are being restrained. This analysis shall not only be tackling various aspects of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, but it will also delve in other areas, for instance, it shall be tackling issues related to the fundamental freedoms. Moreover, since the European Union considers public health as one of the exceptions to the rule in relation to human rights, this dissertation will examine whether suppression of fundamental rights is inevitable in such circumstances. Keeping in mind that sometimes suppression of human rights might be unavoidable, the concepts of limitation and derogation in relation to the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union shall be discussed. Although the pandemic is still evolving at the time of writing, this comparative analysis will shed light on whether Member States are complying with the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and whether such rights are being suppressed by the decisions taken by the statemen in such unprecedented circumstances. Moreover, this chapter will further discuss pit falls that Member States should avoid in truly safeguarding the fundamental rights of the European citizens. By way of conclusion, a chapter will be dedicated on the way forward and whether the current approach needs changing. ; N/A
