The fundamental right to freedom of speech is a central element of the rule of law in a democratic state that constantly collides with other fundamental rights. Both in court decisions and in legal literature there is a significant discussion on the limits of the freedom of speech, mainly concerning its collision with other fundamental rights, particularly personality rights. This debate has become very strong in Brazilian constitutional case law, mainly in the Federal Supreme Court (Supremo Tribunal Federal), but also in other constitutional systems and even in the domain of international law. Based on the decisions of the Brazilian Supreme Court and those of the US Supreme Court and the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany, this paper aims to discuss some criteria that may guide Courts when balancing freedom of speech and other fundamental rights.

Podstawowe prawo do wolności słowa jest głównym elementem praworządności w pańs-twie demokratycznym, które nieustannie zderza się z innymi prawami podstawowymi. Zarówno w orzecznictwie sądowym, jak i doktrynie, trwa dyskusja o granicach wolności słowa, dotycząca przede wszystkim jego kolizji z innymi prawami podstawowymi, w szc-zególności prawami osobistymi. Debata ta stała się bardzo intensywna w związku z bra-zylijskim orzecznictwem konstytucjnym, głównie Federalnego Sądu Najwyższego (Supre-mo Tribunal Federal), ale także w innych systemach konstytucyjnych, a nawet w prawie międzynarodowym. Na podstawie decyzji Sądu Najwyższego Brazylii, a także Sądu Na-jwyższego USA i niemieckiego Federalnego Trybunału Konstytucyjnego, opracowanie to ma na celu przybliżenie pewnych kryteriów, którymi mogą kierować się sądy przy or-zekaniu o wolności słowa i innych prawach podstawowych.
