However, the document is based on the ideological assumptions of gender theory, which assumes that femininity and masculinity are cultural creations that reinforce systemically unequal power relations. The convention sees the sources of violence as systemic social tensions, supposedly stemming from culturally imposed and reinforced gender roles. In doing so, the act ignores phenomena scientifically described as the real causes of violence, such as alcoholism, drug addiction and pornography.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">In Poland, accession to the Convention has raised numerous voices of doubt. In 2020, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki submitted a request to the Constitutional Court to examine the constitutionality of the Convention's provisions. The request was withdrawn by Prime Minister Donald Tusk in January this year.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">Criticism of the Convention's assumptions is also present in international forums. In recent years, several countries have refused to ratify the document or have denounced it. In some of them (Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Slovakia), opposition to the Convention has emerged from all sides of the political scene, including from circles describing themselves as left-wing.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">An example of a country that has rejected the Istanbul Convention is Bulgaria. In July 2018, the Constitutional Court there ruled that the document is incompatible with the country's constitution. The Court pointed out that the Convention's current "framing of 'gender' as a social construct leads to relativization of the category of biological sex. However, if society loses the ability to distinguish between women and men, combating violence against women remains only a formal but unenforceable obligation." The judgment also stressed that the Convention contradicts the constitutional principle of the rule of law by introducing two mutually exclusive definitions of gender. The Court reiterated its position three years later, pointing out in October 2021 that it was impermissible to reinterpret the concept of gender "in a direction which, in the opinion of science, is not unambiguous and irrefutable, and to which there is no public consensus."</p> <p class="text-align-justify">In 2020. The convention was rejected by an overwhelming majority by Slovakia's National Council. During the debate on the issue, Social Democratic Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico announced his opposition to the agreement. Opponents of the Convention pointed out, among other things, that the document is incompatible with the Slovak constitution insofar as it defines marriage and that it introduces a misunderstanding of the term "sex." In Hungary, on the other hand, in 2020. The National Assembly adopted a declaration calling on the government not to ratify the Istanbul Convention. Parliamentarians pointed out that Hungarian law already protects women's rights and disagreed with the introduction of the term "gender" into the legal order.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">In January of this year, the Convention was rejected by the Czech Senate. A majority of representatives of the Czech Social Democratic Party (ČSSD) and part of the liberal TOP 09 voted against ratification. During the debate, the senators pointed out, among other things, that the Convention does not regulate anything that would not already be part of the Czech legal order for protection against violence, and that the document introduces ambiguous concepts such as "gender" into the legal order. In Lithuania, on the other hand, the Convention has been referred to the Constitutional Court by the Seimas to examine its compatibility with the Lithuanian Constitution.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">Israel also refused to join the Convention. There, they pointed mainly to the mass immigration problems that ratification of the document would cause. This is because the Convention's immigration provisions grant political asylum to international victims of domestic violence.</p> <p class="text-align-justify">The Ordo Iuris Institute, in a memorandum handed over to Polish MPs, pointed to the criticism the Istanbul Convention faces internationally. It also pointed out that an alternative to this act is the draft Convention on the Rights of the Family, initiated by social organizations from across Europe, which responds to the problems and threats facing the institution of the family today, and introduces effective instruments to combat domestic violence. The document also emphasizes that it is a strong family that is the space that protects all its members most effectively from violence.</p> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/news_block/field--node--body--aktualnosc.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: x field--node--field-kategoria--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--node--field-kategoria.html.twig * field--node--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--field-kategoria.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/news_block/field--node--field-kategoria--aktualnosc.html.twig' --> Kategoria } <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/news_block/field--node--field-kategoria--aktualnosc.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: x field--node--field-zdjecie--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--node--field-zdjecie.html.twig * field--node--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--field-zdjecie.html.twig * field--image.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/news_block/field--node--field-zdjecie--aktualnosc.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'image_formatter' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * image-formatter--node--aktualnosc--field-zdjecie.html.twig x image-formatter.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/image-formatter.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'image_style' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/image-style.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'image' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/image.html.twig' --> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/artykul_full/public/2024-02/AdobeStock_594906178_Editorial_Use_Only.jpeg?itok=ezwpEbpB" width="250" height="125" alt="" typeof="foaf:Image" /> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/image.html.twig' --> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/image-style.html.twig' --> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/image-formatter.html.twig' --> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/news_block/field--node--field-zdjecie--aktualnosc.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-zrodlo-zdjecia--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--node--field-zrodlo-zdjecia.html.twig * field--node--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--field-zrodlo-zdjecia.html.twig * field--string.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div>Adobe Stock</div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'core/themes/stable/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--node--field-tagi--aktualnosc.html.twig x field--node--field-tagi.html.twig * field--node--aktualnosc.html.twig * field--field-tagi.html.twig * field--entity-reference.html.twig * field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/page_node/field--node--field-tagi.html.twig' --> <hr> <ul class="tags_list"> <li class="label label-ordo2"><a href="/parliament" hreflang="pl">Parliament</a></li> <li class="label label-ordo2"><a href="/istanbul-convention" hreflang="pl">istanbul convention</a></li> <li class="label label-ordo2"><a href="/gender" hreflang="pl">gender</a></li> <li class="label label-ordo2"><a href="/lgbt" hreflang="pl">LGBT</a></li> <li class="label label-ordo2"><a href="/family" hreflang="pl">family</a></li> </ul> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/page_node/field--node--field-tagi.html.twig' --> Fri, 09 Feb 2024 14:22:49 +0000 filip.bator 1494 at https://en.ordoiuris.pl Hungary against gender ideology.

In reality, the Convention does not help women whatsoever but rather is an ideologically motivated act which assumes that preventing violence must consist in dismantling the natural social structures based on the diverse and complementary roles of men and women. It is a society constructed in this manner that is supposedly the very source of oppression and discrimination against women. Meanwhile, empirical research shows that the primary causes of violence are social dysfunctions such as alcoholism, drug addiction, demoralisation of young people, breakdown of family ties and sexualisation of women in the mass media,” said Karolina Pawłowska, Director of the International Law Centre of the Ordo Iuris Institute.</span></span></span></span></p> <!-- END OUTPUT from

The bill was lodged by the "Stop Pedophilia" Legislative Initiative Committee ("Komitet Inicjatywy Ustawodawczej "Stop Pedofilii"), which major initiator is the Pro - Right to Live Foundation (Fundacja Pro - Prawo do życia), supported by many other non-governmental organisations. The Committee had gathered over 260 000 signatures of persons supporting the Bill. It is worth reminding that in accordance with Article 118 section 2 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland legislative initiative is granted on a group of at least 100 000 citizens. The Bill includes amendments to Article 200b of the Act of 6th of June 1997 - the Criminal Code (Polish Journal of Laws Dz. U. of 2019 item 1950; hereinafter referred to as C.C.) Analysis of the Bill leads to the following remarks:</p> <ol><li class="text-align-justify">The purpose of the "Stop Pedophilia" Bill postulated by the Applicants is fully in compliance with the Polish constitutional axiology.</li> <li class="text-align-justify">In accordance with Article 72 of the Polish Constitution: "The Republic of Poland shall ensure protection of the rights of the child. Everyone shall have the right to demand of organs of public authority that they defend children against violence, cruelty, exploitation and actions which undermine their moral sense."</li> </ol><p class="text-align-justify">Both the source literature and the rulings of the Constitutional Tribunal defines "the child" as a minor person (in principle a person who has not attained the age of 18). In accordance with that provision undermining the children's moral sense is construed not only as actions which could influence perpetration of a prohibited act by a young offender, but also perpetration of acts which are permitted, but they may not be deemed educationally desired and adequate to the age and life experience of a person specified by the law as "the child". Therefore passing the "Stop Pedophilia" Bill would contribute to enhancing protection of children against undermining their moral sense.</p> <ol start="3"><li class="text-align-justify">The "Stop Pedophilia" Bill would enhance the parents' right to bring their children up in accordance with their own beliefs, as guaranteed in Article 48 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. It is worth adding that the above mentioned right is also protected by a number of international legal acts (Article 26 section 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; Article 18 section 4 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights; Article 2 of the Protocol 1 to the European Convention on Human Rights; Article 14 section 3 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union).</li> </ol><ol start="4"><li class="text-align-justify">The Polish Criminal Code stipulates a number of prohibited acts which are qualified types of crimes protecting sexual freedom and good morals, and which concern all minors, including those under the age of 15 (Article 199 § 2 and 3 of C.C.; 202 § 3-4c of C.C.; Article 204 § 3 of C.C.). The intensity of protection sometimes depends on the age of the minor.</li> <li class="text-align-justify">Regarding the relation between the "Stop Pedophilia" Bill and conducting the so called sexual education classes it must be stated that none of the teachers who properly and fairly execute the core curriculum of the Family Life Education classes shall be a subject to criminal liability under the provisions of the Bill. Execution of the core curriculum and going beyond it and perpetrating an act instead of its execution are two different matters (it is worth noticing that pursuant to the current Polish legal provisions similar situations are already possible - for example history teachers is liable to criminal prosecution if, during classes they praise and promote the Nazi of communist system).</li> <li class="text-align-justify">In accordance with Recital 33 of the Preamble to the Directive 2011/92/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 December 2011: "Member States should undertake actions to prevent or prohibit acts related to the promotion of sexual abuse of children and child sex tourism" The above indicates that the European Union legislative bodies claim that it is not only desirable to prevent, but also completely prohibit any promotion of acts related to children abuse for sexual purposes. In that area not only the Bill does not violate the Directive, but, in line with the intentions of the Bill Authors, it should contribute to better execution of item 33 of the Directive's Preamble. Thus the "Stop Pedophilia" Bill is in consistency with the law of the European Union.</li> <li class="text-align-justify">Legal solutions similar to those set forth in the "Stop Pedophilia" Bill are in force in some other European states with Germany and Great Britain being good examples here. In most of the European criminal law systems praising and promotion of pedophilia is punishable as a crime of more general character, i.e. public praising of commitment of a crime.</li> <li class="text-align-justify">Amendment of the proposed Article 200b § 2 of C.C. should be recommended. It is not understandable why the above mention provision would criminalize only public praising or promotion of sex by a minor, while the scope of criminalization should be specified similarly to § 4, i.e. it should concern both sex and undertaking "other sexual activities".</li> </ol> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/ordoiuris/templates/news_block/field--node--body--aktualnosc.html.twig' -->

be held again today in Sejm, the lower house of the polish parliament. The bill – which proposes repealing the laws which legitimate eugenic abortion – has been signed by over 830,000 Poles. In the analysis which was sent to the Members of the Polish Parliament, Ordo Iuris emphasizes that the Polish Constitution protects the life of every human being and does not make this protection dependent on age or health condition. This position has been consequently confirmed by the Constitutional Tribunal. Identical conclusions can be drawn from international treaties, which oblige Poland to provide protection of life to every human being – including the unborn. </span></span></span></strong></p> <p style="text-align:justify; margin:0cm 0cm 8pt"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The civic bill was proposed by the Committee of the Legislative Initiative “Stop Abortion” (pl. <i>Komitet Inicjatywy Ustawodawczej “Stop Aborcji”</i>) in November 2017 after collecting a record number of over 830,000 signatures. The bill proposes repealing the article 4a paragraph 1 point 2 of the Act of January 7<sup>th</sup> 1993 on family planning, protection of the human fetus and conditions for the admissibility of termination of pregnancy – the law which at present legalizes abortion due to suspected illness or disability of the child. This is one of the three conditions under which abortion is not penalized, often called the “eugenic premise”. Eugenic abortions comprise over 90% of abortions performed in Polish hospitals due to statutory exceptions.</span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align:justify; margin:0cm 0cm 8pt"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">As the first reading of the “Stop abortion” bill has been scheduled for the next Sejm session (April 15<sup>th</sup> and 16<sup>th</sup>), the Ordo Iuris Institute prepared a legal analysis which confirms that the bill is not only fully compliant with the Polish Constitution and international law which is in force in Poland, but it also repeals legal provisions which are incompatible with the Polish Constitution. The Constitution of the Republic of Poland guarantees protection of life of every human being and does not make this protection dependent on age (which includes irrelevance of whether one has already been born or not), health condition or life expectancy. Moreover, it imposes supporting the disabled (regardless of age) and forbids discrimination based on age or health condition. Eugenic abortion violates all of the above-mentioned resolutions of the Constitution. </span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align:justify; margin:0cm 0cm 8pt"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Such opinion is confirmed by the Constitutional Tribunal, which has already ruled on May 28<sup>th</sup> 1997 (file reference number K 26/96) that “the value of human life which is a constitutionally protected legal right, including life in the prenatal phase of its development, cannot be differentiated”. In turn, in its judgment of September 30<sup>th</sup> 2008 (file reference number K 44/07), the Tribunal stated that “limiting legal protection of human life in order to protect values of lesser importance according the constitutional hierarchy, e.g. property and other property rights, public morality environmental protection or even protection of health of other people, would be absolutely unacceptable in a democratic state ruled by law, which implements the principles of social justice and protects life and inalienable human dignity”. </span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align:justify; margin:0cm 0cm 8pt"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The Supreme Court is fully consistent with the position of the Constitutional Tribunal, as it consequently explains that there can be no “doubts that life and health of a human being from conception to natural death are protected values” in the Polish law. In 2008 the Supreme Court has confirmed that nothing stands in the way for the legislator to increase the scale and intensity of protection of human life – including an introduction of “uniform intensity of protection of life from the moment of conception”. Importantly, numerous prominent lawyers, including professor Andrzej Zoll, the former president of the Constitutional Tribunal and former ombudsman – pointed out that eugenic abortion is contrary to the Polish Constitution.</span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align:justify; margin:0cm 0cm 8pt"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Furthermore, the obligation to legally protect human life directly results from international agreements biding Poland, such as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966) or the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989). Especially the latter strongly emphasizes the need to protect the rights of unborn children. Contrary to the often-repeated fake news, no international treaty obliges Poland to legitimize abortion in any respect, no treaty even implies such requirement. </span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align:justify; margin:0cm 0cm 8pt"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">It is true that some international bodies (including the UN committees) call on countries around the world to lower their standards of life protection and promote the ideological concept of ‘reproductive rights’ – contrary to international agreements which protect human rights. Their actions, however, are illegitimate and deprived of any legal force. They do not bind the member states and, most importantly, they are only an expression of the private beliefs of the members of these committees.</span></span></span></p> <!-- END OUTPUT from
