15 52. The Court has established the conditions that are to be met regarding the suspension and curtailment of or restrictions on the rights and freedoms enshrined by the Convention.42 In particular, it has examined emergency situations43 and restrictions on the right to freedom of thought and expression,44 the right to private property,45 freedom of movement,46 and personal liberty,47 among others. 53. Regarding the contents of freedom of thought and expression, the Court has pointed out that those who are protected by the Convention not only have the right to seek, receive, and disseminate ideas and information of any kind, but also to receive information and be informed about the ideas and information disseminated by others. Consequently freedom of thought and expression has both an individual and a social dimension: on the one hand, it requires that no one may be arbitrarily harmed or impeded from expressing his own thought and, therefore, it represents a right of every individual; on the other hand, it implies a collective right to receive any information and to know the expression of the thought of others.48 54. Notwithstanding, freedom of thought and expression is not an absolute right. Article 13(2) of the Convention, which prohibits prior censorship, provides for the possibility of placing restrictions on freedom of thought and expression by imposing subsequent liability for abuse of this right. These restrictions in no way should restrict, beyond what is strictly necessary, the full exercise of freedom of thought and expression or become either a direct or indirect mechanism of prior censorship.49 55. In turn, Article 11 of the Convention provides that everyone has the right to have his honor respected and his dignity recognized. Hence, this article implies a limitation to the interference of individuals and the State. Thus, it is legitimate for an individual who considers that his honor has been affected to resort to the judicial mechanisms established by the State to protect it.50 56. The need to protect the right to have one’s honor respected and one’s dignity recognized, as well as other rights which might be affected by the abusive exercise of freedom of thought and expression, requires due compliance with the limitations imposed 42 Cf.
