They also pose a challenge on the ground of legal sciences. This article is devoted to a dogmatic-legal analysis of the type of legally protected goods that are restricted in connection with mandatory vaccination (among others: the right to respect for private and family life, personal freedom, the right to self- determination) and those values that vaccination is in principle supposed to protect (public health, life, and health of children). The article analyses in detail the ruling of the European Court of Human Rights, which seems to be a breakthrough. On the one hand, it ends the dispute pending before the Court and, on the other, it opens the field for further discussion on the essence of mandatory vaccinations. The research has been carried out by using the dogmatic-legal method, the method of analysis and criticism of literature, the method of analysis of case law and the statistical method. In the presented research results, reports and statistical data of international bodies concerning the level of vaccination among children and adolescents in Europe were usedObvezno cepljenje otrok in mladostnikov je v javnosti sporno vprašanje. Prav tako predstavlja izziv na področju pravnih znanosti. Članek je posvečen dogmatično-pravni analizi vrste pravno varovanih dobrin, ki so v zvezi z obveznim cepljenjem omejene (med drugim: pravica do spoštovanja zasebnega in družinskega življenja, osebna svoboda, pravica do samoodločanja), in tistih vrednot, ki naj bi jih cepljenje načeloma varovalo (javno zdravje, življenje in zdravje otrok). V članku je podrobno analizirana sodba Evropskega sodišča za človekove pravice, ki se zdi prelomna. Po eni strani zaključuje spor, ki je potekal pred Sodiščem, po drugi strani pa odpira polje za nadaljnjo razpravo o bistvu obveznega cepljenja. Raziskava je bila opravljena z uporabo dogmatično-pravne metode, metode analize in kritike literature, metode analize sodne prakse in statistične metode. Pri predstavljenih rezultatih raziskave so bila uporabljena poročila in statistični podatki mednarodnih organov o stopnji cepljenja otrok in mladostnikov v EvropiTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Mariboru, Pravna fakulteta
