Defamation in Cyprus and European Law P.G. Polyviou ISBN 978-960-622-728-8 Abstract: The law of Defamation is a particularly interesting area of the Law. Two basic rights are involved in this area, the right to free expression on the one hand and the right to reputation on the other. The Law of Cyprus presents particular interest because of the interaction of the common law, which is used in Cyprus, and the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights in its interpretation of the relevant provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights. The author is a Cypriot lawyer who has practised extensively in this area of the Law and who has already written a book on the subject. The author’s analysis of the Law of Cyprus on Defamationandoftherelevantcase lawoftheEuropeanCourtwillproveveryuseful to Judges, Lawyers and others interested in the subject.
