Sažetak
Freedom of expression is one of the guaranteed human freedoms and the conditio sine qua non of contemporary society. However, its scope is not unlimited. Certain restrictions are necessary in order to prevent the violations of rights and freedoms of others in the broadest sense. Hate speech represents the unprotected expression, but legal approaches to its sanctioning are not unique. This paper deals with basic features regarding hate speech and its criminal law regulation in selected legal systems. Having in mind modern European tendencies, we give the overview of specific case law from European Court of Human Rights, important for establishing legal standards in this area. At the end, provisions of Croatian criminal law are presented, including numerous changes that were adopted within the scope of this incrimination.
