Abstract

In 2018, the Danish Supreme Court revoked Adam Johansen’s citizenship in conjunction with his conviction for terrorism. Applying a proportionality test adapted from European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) jurisprudence for naturalised, not natural, citizens, the Danish court determined that Johansen’s Muslim faith tied him to Tunisia, his father’s country, rather than to Denmark. In March 2022, the ECtHR unanimously upheld this judgment. In so doing, the ECtHR solidified an emerging standard in cases of citizenship revocation for natural citizens, which standard is weaker than the protections enjoyed by naturalised citizens. This article reviews the Danish and ECtHR jurisprudence to show how the explosive expansion of citizenship revocation in relation to terror crimes, combined with the ECtHR’s emerging jurisprudence rejecting substantive review for such revocation, demonstrates a significant, multidirectional weakening of rights protections in Europe.

割不断的纽带在丹麦失去归属感
2018 年,丹麦最高法院撤销了亚当-约翰森(Adam Johansen)的公民身份,同时撤销了他的恐怖主义定罪。丹麦法院采用了欧洲人权法院(ECtHR)针对归化公民而非自然公民的判例所改编的相称性测试,认定约翰森的穆斯林信仰将他与突尼斯(其父亲的国家)而非丹麦联系在一起。2022 年 3 月,欧洲人权法院一致维持了这一判决。欧洲人权法院以此巩固了在自然公民公民身份撤销案件中新出现的标准,该标准弱于归化公民享有的保护。本文回顾了丹麦和欧洲人权法院的判例,以说明与恐怖犯罪有关的公民身份撤销的爆炸性扩张,与欧洲人权法院拒绝对此类撤销进行实质性审查的新兴判例相结合,是如何显示出欧洲对权利保护的重大、多向削弱的。

期刊介绍: Law and Critique is the prime international critical legal theory journal. It has been published for 20 years and is associated with the Critical Legal Conference. Law and Critique covers all aspects of legal theory, jurisprudence and substantive law that are approached from a critical perspective. Law and Critique has introduced into legal scholarship a variety of schools of thought, such as postmodernism; feminism; queer theory; critical race theory; literary approaches to law; psychoanalysis; law and the humanities; law and aesthetics and post-colonialism. Postmodern jurisprudence, law and aesthetics and law and psychoanalysis were pioneered in Law and Critique which remains the most authoritative international source for these schools of thought. Law and Critique is keen to translate and incorporate non-English critical legal thought. More specifically, Law and Critique encourages the submission of articles in the areas of critical legal theory and history, law and literature, law and psychoanalysis, feminist legal theory, critical race theory, law and post-colonialism; postmodern jurisprudence, law and aesthetics; legal phenomenology; and law and autopoiesis. Past special issues include: ''Critical Legal Education''; ''The Gender of Law''; ''Law and Postmodernism''; ''Law and Literature''; ''Law and Post-colonialism'', ''Law and Theatre''; ''Jean-Luc Nancy and Law''; ''Agamben and Law''. Law and Critique is ranked amongst the top 20 per cent of law journals by the Australian Research Council.
