Gaponchuk V. Criminal-legal counteraction to public appeals for criminal actions

The problem of theoretical-methodological bases of research of public appeals for criminal actions is considered. The issue of determining the relationship between freedom of expression and public appeals as prohibited behavior is covered. Public appeals for criminal actions as a verbal offense and as a cross-cutting criminal law concept are characterized and the correlation of public appeals with related phenomena is determined. International standards, as well as the case law of the European Court of Human Rights on the understanding of freedom of expression and public appeals as prohibited conduct are reviewed in the thesis. In the decisions of the Court, the publicity of appeals to commit criminal acts is considered, in particular, as an opportunity for the general public to view the information posted on the website. Herewith, the Court takes into account the general context in which public appeals to wrongful conduct were made, as well as the socio-political situation in the country.
