Generally, the
proportionality test has two internal functions for the Strasbourg judges: (1)
strike fair balance between/among the competing interests; (2) testing on the
reasonableness and appropriateness between the measures employed and aim
pursued. In the first category, the primary task of the Court is to protect the
scope of “essence” of the Convention rights from the interference of collective
goods relying on the interest-based rights theory. Beyond this scope, the Court
would have to balance the interests explicitly incorporated into the Convention
rights as well as the external collective goods claimed by the state
authorities.
