Summary
The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR or Court) has used the term ‘European public order’ in more than a hundred decisions and judgments. This number suggests that its deployment is not a coincidence; the Court seemingly relies on European public order. The Grand Chamber of the ECtHR has been referring to European public order more and more frequently in recent years. However, in none of these judgments has the Court explained what European public order actually means and how it can be conceptualised.
