Überwachung durch Nachrichtendienste: Grundrechtsschutz und Rechtsbehelfe in der Europäischen Union – Teil II – Zusammenfassung

Angesichts der wachsenden Bedrohungen durch Terrorismus, Cyber-Angriffe und ausgefeilte grenzüberschreitende kriminelle Netze ist die Arbeit der Nachrichtendienste dringlicher, vielschichtiger und internationaler geworden. Diese Arbeit kann einen starken Eingriff in die Grundrechte darstellen, und hierbei insbesondere in die Achtung der Privatsphäre und den Datenschutz. Obgleich der stetige technologische Fortschritt die Bedrohung eines solchen Eingriffs potentiell verschlimmert, kann das Missbrauchspotential durch wirksame Aufsicht und Rechtsbehelfe eingedämmt werden.

Second European Union Minorities and Discrimination Survey - Main results

Seventeen years after adoption of EU laws that forbid discrimination, immigrants, descendants of immigrants, and minority ethnic groups continue to face widespread discrimination across the EU and in all areas of life – most often when seeking employment. For many, discrimination is a recurring experience.
