The Nature of the Right to Be Forgotten and its Role in the Human Rights System

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to reveal the concept and content of the right to be forgotten, also the characteristics of the relationship with other human rights. Within the framework of the article, the international and domestic legislations, practice and theoretical approaches, which are necessary to understand the nature of the right to be forgotten and the problems arising around the provision and protection of this right in RA, the legislative gaps underlying them and the main goal of their recovery, were studied. To achieve the above-mentioned goal, the legal basis of the right to be forgotten, some theoretical interpretations of it, and the approaches of the international, European and American legal systems are distinguished and compared to the legislative approaches in RA. The research was carried out using dogmatic, legal comparative, combination, logical analysis and legal modelling methods. We comprehensively studied the relationship and balance between the right to be forgotten and other rights, highlighted the need to solve the problems that have become uncontrollable in the electronic domain and adopt regulations that exclude possible mass violations of human rights, discussed their absence and the resulting issues.
