Russia is used to be one of the main “targets” of the ECtHR. The context of political rights, guaranteed especially by Art. 3 of Protocol 1, is particularly relevant in showing the development of the relationship between the constitutional dimension and the ECHR within the Russian legal order. Within this context, a systematization of the case-law concerning Art. 3 of Protocol 1 (the right to passive electorate; to active electorate, focusing especially on prisoners’ right to vote; and to the democratic and electoral process) will be provided, in order to assessing the impact of the ECtHR’s case-law on the Russian legal order and citizens’ rights, by verifying whether and how the former contributes to redesign both constitutional and legislative framework of the latter.
We look forward to welcoming you on July 3-5, 2023 for our Annual Conference entitled "Islands and Ocean: Public Law in a Plural World." The conference will take place at the Victoria University of Wellington, in New Zealand.
