مدى مراعاة التشريع الأردني للمعايير الدولية الناظمة للحق في الاجتماع العام

الملخص EN

In most countries of the world, and particularly in Jordan, the national legislations that governing the right of freedom of public assembly is described as largely inconsistent with the international standards that ensure the optimal practice of this right, which were also incorporated in most of the international and regional conventions that govern human rights.

This calls for the countries to necessarily adapt their national legislations in a manner that meets with these standards.

In response to that, this study aims to identify the key international standards governing the right to freedom of public assembly, and to assess the extent to which they were adopted in the Jordanian legislations, particularly, the Constitution of Jordan, and the Public Assemblies Law of 2004.

This study consists of two chapters where the Researcher addressed in the first chapter the key international standards governing the right to public assembly, while in the second chapter, he discussed the position of the Jordanian legislations from the international standards governing the right to public assembly.

This study concluded that the Public Assemblies Law, when it regulated the provisions regarding practicing the right to freedom of public assembly, it was somehow not in line with the international standards that regulate this right.

In this regard, the Researcher suggested a number of recommendations which are recommended to be taken into consideration in order to ensure the conformity of the Public Assemblies Law with the international standards relevant to the right to freedom of public assembly, subject of this study.
