Title | States and their domestic enemies:legal options to safeguard democracy from extremist parties |
Summary | This thesis will overview the concept of militant democracy and its implementation in the jurisdiction of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Russian Federation and the European Court of Human Rights. The comparative analysis will focus on the evolution of the term militant democracy: how it has changed since Germany incorporated ‘militancy’ into Basic Law and what are the current challenges that democracies are confronted with. Besides the theoretical outline, I will introduce the practical application of militant democracy and I will argue that the case law of the Strasbourg Court provides general standards that are applicable to every democratic states. |
