Infracțiuni motivate de ură

Online hate speech is a growing problem in today’s digitalised societies. Women, Black people, Jews and Roma are often targets of online hate speech. Online hate proliferates where human content moderators miss offensive content. Also, algorithms are prone to errors. They may multiply errors over time and may even end up promoting online hate. This report presents the challenges in identifying and detecting online hate. Hate of any kind should not be tolerated, regardless of whether it is online or offline. The report discusses the implications for fundamental rights to support creating a rights-compliant digital environment.

Această lucrare prezintă evoluția jurisprudenței Curții Europene a Drepturilor
Omului cu privire la infracțiunile motivate de ură, oferind o actualizare în ceea
ce privește cele mai recente hotărâri. Abordarea infracțiunilor motivate de ură
dintr-o perspectivă a drepturilor fundamentale arată cum datoria autorităților
statelor membre de a investiga în mod eficient motivarea bazată pe prejudecată
a infracțiunilor decurge din instrumentele cheie ale drepturilor omului, cum ar fi
Convenția europeană a drepturilor omului.

This report examines why victims do not report bias-motivated incidents and the barriers that they face when reporting incidents through national crime reporting systems. By mapping existing practices that have a bearing on the victim’s experiences when reporting bias-motivated violence and harassment, it aims to provide evidence to support national efforts to encourage and facilitate reporting – and ultimately assist Member States in delivering on their duties with regard to combating hate crime.

Across the European Union, people face hatred because of their skin colour, ethnicity, religion, gender or sexuality. In response, the EU and its Member States have introduced laws against hate crime and support services for victims. But these will only fulfil their potential if victims report hate-motivated harassment and violence to the police, and if police officers record such incidents as hate crimes. This report provides rich and detailed information on hate crime recording and data collection systems across the EU, including any systemic cooperation with civil society.
