Immunities from the Past to the Present. Trajectory of Immunities

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Immunities and privileges have grown from their ancient historical roots. In the form in which they exist today, their importance has shifted significantly. It can be expressed briefly as the fact, that while they were originally, according to their content, the personal advantages for certain individuals or groups, today they are granted to the persons and bodies exercising public power as a guarantee of the possibility of their free, dignified and undisturbed performance. In this context, the question is asked to what extent immunities are in accordance with the principle of equality, and the answer to this is positive if the other rules of the democratic society are respected. Although the functioning of parliamentary democracies are based on the cooperation between the government and the parliamentary majority, the importance of immunities is not lost, because the mission is to protect the parliament as a whole, including the minorities. In the concrete form, immunities of the deputies usually include freedom from arrest and freedom of speech and are modified differently in various constitutions. It applies, with few exceptions, to voting and, to a large extent, to speeches made in the Parliament. It also applies to actions that are connected with exercising their mandate. The concrete form of immunities and privileges, which are granted primarily to the heads of state, is demonstrated in examples of selected constitutions of the European countries.
