ABSTRACT

This article attempts to analyse the argumentative model of European consensus as a ground for adopting or refusing to adopt a dynamic interpretation of the ECHR’s provisions. The consensus model promises an objective and verifiable method of dynamic interpretation. This aspiration is rooted in the positivistic character of the model—the evolutionary interpretation is thought to reflect the currently dominant societal axiological views, which are established through purely legal reasoning involving comparative legal analysis. Unfortunately, the theoretical promise of the consensus method remains unfulfilled. The professionalisation of the Court’s comparative research will not be able to rescue this method if there are no coherent criteria for evaluating the data resulting from the research. In addition, the majoritarian logic that lies behind the consensus model cannot satisfy the justificatory need invoked from the perspective of a respondent State.

共识是动态解释《欧洲人权公约》的基础-一项重要评估

摘要

本文试图分析欧洲共识的论证模型，作为采用或拒绝采用对ECHR条款的动态解释的基础。共识模型有望提供一种客观且可验证的动态解释方法。这种愿望根源于模型的实证主义特征-进化解释被认为反映了当前占主导地位的社会价值论观点，这些观点是通过涉及比较法律分析的纯粹法律推理建立的。不幸的是，共识方法的理论承诺仍未实现。如果没有一致的标准来评估研究得出的数据，那么法院比较研究的专业化将无法挽救这种方法。此外，
