Abstracts

EN

The article deals with the principle of proportionality, which, despite being very well-known and widely used in other European countries, has received quite a reluctant treatment in Slovakia. It was only in 2009 that the principle of proportionality was dealt with in an upto-date fashion by Constitutional Court of the Slovak Republic in two cases concerning freedom of speech. The article uses these cases as an example through which it tries to explain the structure, origins and ideas underlying the principle of proportionality with special regard to Robert Alexy’s theory of balancing of constitutional rights.
