Cari lettori,
PRIMO PIANO
FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION: THE SUBJECT ON
EVERYBODY'S MINDS (BUT NOT LIPS)
Annie Rydén is a Master student of International Sports Law at SSBM Geneva and a project and policy intern at EU Athletes. While originally from Sweden, she completed her undergraduate degree in The Hague and has conducted a legal internship at Coccia De Angelis & Associati in Rome. Email: annryd97@gmail.com.
Beyond the Olympic facade of glitz and glamour, athletes competing at the 2022 Beijing Games faced double threats. On the one hand, there was the imminent and persistent threat of Covid-19. On the other hand, there was the fear of facing repercussions by Chinese authorities for speaking out about politics and the host nation’s poor human rights record. This article addresses the latter concern. More specifically, it shines light on the International Olympic Committee’s restriction on athletes’ freedom of expression – in place for the purpose of “political neutrality” – and explores the potential routes for challenging infamous Rule 50(2) of the Olympic Charter. Taking into consideration the ever-increasing role that athletes play in the broader political discussion whilst noting the recent selection of Olympic host cities under authoritarian regimes, the article demonstrates the need for the International Olympic Movement to move away from its dubious and precarious position on athletes’ freedom of expression towards a more progressive and proactive one.
