Abstract

Corruption is a serious threat to the stability and security of societies, undermining institutions and democratic values, ethical principles, and justice, as well as sustainable development and the rule of law. It manifests itself in many ways and in a multitude of contexts, affecting almost all human rights, including economic and social rights (i.e., the right to work, the right to food, the right to housing, the right to health, the right to education, the right to public services, the right to development), as well as civil and political rights (i.e., the right to equality and non-discrimination, the right to political participation, the right to an effective remedy and to a fair trial). In this perspective, starting from an examination of the direct and negative impact of corruption on the enjoyment of human rights (Section 1), the analysis that follows focuses on the obligations of States to respect, promote, and above all, protect human rights (i.e., take all necessary measures to ensure their full enjoyment) (Section 2), traces the ECtHR’s most incisive pronouncements on violations of individual guarantees in the context of corruption (Section 3), and highlights the crucial role of the Court’s case law in defining more effective, preventive, and punitive measures against corruption (Section 4).

欧洲人权法院对建设无腐败社会的贡献
腐败是对社会稳定与安全的严重威胁,破坏了制度和民主价值观、道德原则、正义以及可持续发展和法治。腐败的表现形式多种多样,影响到几乎所有人权,包括经济和社会权利(即工作权、食物权、住房权、健康权、受教育权、公共服务权、发展权)以及公民和政治权利(即平等和不受歧视权、政治参与权、有效补救权和公平审判权)。从这一角度出发,从研究腐败对享有人权的直接和负面影响(第 1 部分)入手,接下来 的分析侧重于国家尊重、促进,尤其是保护人权的义务(即采取一切必要措施确保人权的充分享有)(第 2 节),追溯欧洲人权法院就腐败背景下侵犯个人保障问题所做的最精辟的宣判(第 3 节),并强调法院判例法在确定更有效的预防和惩治腐败措施方面的关键作用(第 4 节)。
