Does the Inviolability of Archives Lead to a Catch-22 Situation?
description
In contrast to Joseph Heller’s novel ‘Catch-22’, the illogical or paradoxical situation arising from the privilege of inviolability of archives in international organisations’ cooperation with national in the fight against fraud and corruption is one of different legal orders that are not necessarily aligned from the outset. National law enforcement and judicial authorities have to respect the privilege of inviolability of archives enjoyed by international organisations. They may neither interpret the privilege restrictively without taking full account at the same time of the purpose of privileges, i.e. the orderly and independent operation of international organisations, nor generally limit the privilege in any other way. It therefore lies in the hands of international organisations themselves to limit the risk of a catch-22 situation arising from the privilege of inviolability of archives in their cooperation with national authorities. However, the onus is not only on international organisations. Any reasonable use of the privilege presupposes that national law enforcement and judicial authorities acknowledge its existence and deal with it respectfully.

Las autoridades nacionales tienen que respetar la inviolabilidad de los archivos de organizaciones internacionales y no pueden ni interpretar el privilegio de manera restrictiva, sin tomar en cuenta al mismo tiempo su propósito, que es la operación ordenada e independiente de las organizaciones internacionales; y tampoco limitar el privilegio de alguna otra manera. Por lo tanto, queda en manos de las organizaciones internacionales en sí mismas el limitar el riesgo de una situación de Trampa 22, al cumplir con su deber de cooperar con autoridades nacionales. Sin embargo, la carga de la prueba no solo recae en las organizaciones internacionales. Cualquier uso razonable del privilegio presupone que las autoridades nacionales reconocen su existencia y la abordan de manera respetuosa.2017text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=6629096(Revista) ISSN 1870-2147IUS : revista del Instituto de Ciencias Jurídicas de Puebla, ISSN 1870-2147, null 11, Nº. 40, 2017 (Ejemplar dedicado a: Derechos Humanos y Política Internacional), pags. 183-200engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
