Trunova H. A. The practice of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the protection of rights in the field of social security.
The article is devoted to the issue of protection of rights in the field of social security by the European Court of Human Rights. The evolution of the spread of the provisions of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms to the category of social rights in the practice of the Court has been considered. The positions of domestic experts regarding the protection of the rights of the ECHR in the field of social security have been analyzed. The provisions of the Convention under which social rights are protected have been highlighted. The procedure defined by the ECHR for analyzing whether a property right has been interfered with in breach of the Convention has been represented. The main provisions of the decision in the case «Stec and others v. the United Kingdom» have been reflected in the context of the broad protection of rights in the field of social security. Attention has been focused on the doctrine of legitimate expectations of property protection in accordance with the guarantees provided by Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention in the context of the protection of rights in the field of social security. The decision in the case «Belane Nagy v. Hungary» regarding the definition of legitimate expectations in matters of protection of rights in the field of social security has been analyzed. Relevant conclusions have been drawn regarding the ECHR’s protection of rights in the field of social security, in particular, regarding the broad protection of the corresponding category of rights, as well as the application of the «legitimate expectations» category of property protection in accordance with the guarantees provided for in Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention.
Key words: European Court of Human Rights, social security, social protection, social rights, protection of rights, pension, social insurance, legitimate expectations.
