The right of journalists not to disclose their\nsources under the European Convention on Human Rights and in the USA: A\ncomparative perspective<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monday 22 April, 16:30 \u2013\n19:30 at room 3A<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lecture will first introduce basic concepts\nwhich are relevant with the topic. Then, it will analyse the significance of\nthe right of journalists not to disclose their sources (reporter’s privilege)\nfor the right of the public to be informed and for the right of citizens to\ncontrol the Government in a democratic society. The lecture will then compare\nthe different approaches of the Supreme Court of the USA (SCOTUS) and of the\nEuropean Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) as regards the status of the reporter’s\nprivilege as a fundamental right. We will see how one and the same logic (\u201cthe\nchilling effect doctrine\u201d) was proven to be an adequate basis for the ECtHR to\nrecognize the protection of the reporter’s privilege as a fundamental right\nunder Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), while it\nwas insufficient for the majority in Branzburg, which declined to recognize the\nconstitutional status of the reporter’s privilege under the First Amendment of\nthe Constitution of the USA. In the last part, the lecture will analyse the\nrelevant jurisprudence of the ECtHR (which should be followed by all member\nstates of the Council of Europe), and it will provide a broad image as regards\nthe protection of the reporter’s privilege at state level in the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
