ASTUDILLO MUNOZ, Jorge Luis. The right to privacy of public officials versus the right of access to public information. A study in light of the jurisprudence of the Council for Transparency in Chile. Derecho glob. Estud. sobre derecho justicia [online]. 2020, vol.5, n.15, pp.89-112.  Epub 04-Ago-2020. ISSN 2448-5136.  https://doi.org/10.32870/dgedj.v5i15.277.

This work presents a brief jurisprudential analysis of the doctrine supported by the Chilean Council for Transparency regarding the right to private life of State Administration officials against the requirements formulated in exercise of the right of access to information. Assuming that public officials are holders of fundamental rights, this article reports, through the study of particular cases, how the Council for Transparency has understood and maintained that the people who make up the State organs must tolerate a reduction in their scope of privacy due to the nature of the functions they fulfill and the general interest that underlies them.

Palabras llave : Right of Access to public information; Privacy; Council for Transparency, Chile.
