Short Introduction
In constitutional law, which is the subject of my research, one of its key issues is the protection of individual liberty rights. These liberty rights include freedom of expression, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, and freedom to choose one’s occupation. Conventional constitutional theory has discussed restrictions and proscriptions of certain forms of the exercise of these liberty rights as "interventions" on liberty. In recent times, however, it has been pointed out that the possibility to exercise constitutional rights has been curtailed by means with indirect and de facto effects to discourage individuals from exercising them. Typically, "surveillance of public spaces" is one example. For instance, one individual would refrain from participating in a certain assembly, when he or she is not certain about what disadvantages the recording or monitoring of this participation would bring in the future. This deterrent effect has been discussed as the "chilling effect" and analyzed in constitutional law. In order to prevent the exercise of liberty rights from being lost in its preliminary sphere, my research will provide a theoretical study to incorporate the chilling effect into constitutional review.
