PRINCIPLE OF PROPORTIBILITY OF RESTRICTION OF ELECTORAL RIGHTS SENTENCED TO DETENTION OF FREEDOM: INTERNATIONAL LAW AND RUSSIAN LEGISLATION
The «principle of proportionality» appears in international law as a justified guarantee of the legal restriction of the electoral rights and freedoms of prosiners. Moreover, due to the fact that in Russian law there is an uncompromising approach to the actual «deprivation» of the electoral rights of all persons sentenced to imprisonment, a legal collision arises with this principle. The result of this collision was the recognition by the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation of the impossibility of enforcing the decision of the ECHR in the case of Anchugov and Gladkov v. Russian Federation. The presented work provides an analysis of the current international and domestic law, as well as presents a position related to the method of overcoming the named legal conflict.
