Abstract
MARTIN HUERTAS, Ma. Ascensión. Sentences of the European Court of Human Rights in Relation to Political Parties and Trade Unions. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2010, n.23, pp.85-120. ISSN 1405-9193.
There are two features that shape freedom of assembly providing it with profiles of its own: its internationalisation, that is, its supranational character, and the great development of jurisdictional as well as human rights guarantees, through the judges' action and a sophisticated as well as a progressively more efficient procedural legal method. It is precisely within this framework where the European court of Human Rights displays its efficient protection which, both in the interpretation and application of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, has reached the highest degree of perfection and technical development in the jurisdictional control of the fundamental freedoms on the whole and of the freedom of assembly in particular, allowing private individuals to directly appeal before an international court, whose jurisdictional character is both obligatory and automatic.
