An article of Evangelia Psychogiopoulou (and F. Casarosa), entitled ‘Fundamental rights in national social media jurisprudence: A study of higher and appellate courts’, was published in European Human Rights Law Review. This article examines national court decisions on social media in a selected set of EU Member States, aiming to identify and analyse their fundamental rights dimension. Do national judges engage in fundamental rights reasoning when called upon to solve social media disputes? Overall, what is the contribution of national courts to the protection and balancing of distinct fundamental rights and interests in the realm of social media? The analysis focuses on free speech and (data) privacy rights, and discusses the input offered by supranational sources of fundamental rights protection such as the ECHR and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU to national adjudication.
