Artículo 12 - Libertad de reunión y de asociación

1. Toda persona tiene derecho a la libertad de reunión pacífica y a la libertad de asociación en todos los niveles, especialmente en los ámbitos político, sindical y cívico, lo que supone el derecho de toda persona a fundar con otras sindicatos y a afiliarse a los mismos para la defensa de sus intereses.

2. Los partidos políticos a escala de la Unión contribuyen a expresar la voluntad política de los ciudadanos de la Unión.

  • Text:

    1. Las disposiciones del apartado 1 de este artículo corresponden a lo dispuesto en el artículo 11 del CEDH, que dice lo siguiente:
    `1. Toda persona tiene derecho a la libertad de reunión pacífica y a la libertad de asociación, incluido el derecho de fundar, con otras, sindicatos y de afiliarse a los mismos para la defensa de sus intereses.
    2. El ejercicio de estos derechos no podrá ser objeto de otras restricciones que aquellas que, previstas por la ley, constituyan medidas necesarias, en una sociedad democrática, para la seguridad nacional, la seguridad pública, la defensa del orden y la prevención del delito, la protección de la salud o de la moral, o la protección de los derechos y libertades ajenos. El presente artículo no prohíbe que se impongan restricciones legítimas al ejercicio de estos derechos por los miembros de las fuerzas armadas, de la policía o de la Administración del Estado.`
    Las disposiciones del apartado 1 del presente artículo 12 tienen el mismo sentido y alcance que las del CEDH, pero su ámbito de aplicación es más amplio dado que pueden aplicarse a todos los niveles, incluido el europeo. Conforme al apartado 3 del artículo 52 de la Carta, las limitaciones a este derecho no pueden sobrepasar las que el apartado 2 del artículo 11 del CEDH considera que pueden ser legítimas.
    2. Este derecho se basa también en el artículo 11 de la Carta Comunitaria de los Derechos Sociales Fundamentales de los Trabajadores.
    3. El apartado 2 del presente artículo corresponde al apartado 4 del artículo 10 del Tratado de la Unión Europea.
