Résumé anglais Legislation based on a “third generation of human rights” A whole series of laws issued in 1978 and 1979 embodies a fundamental right to information or delineates a'third generation of human rights'. Although the various texts had been commented on piecemeal in the past, no synthetic study on them has been available thus far. The author has attempted to fill this gap by analyzing one by one the different common features of this legislation, its inter-relations, and the novelty of telematics. This study shows that, whatever the ‘generation', these laws conferring rights to individuals need, in order to become actually applicable, a fundamental political intent operating right down to the base and as the result of custom which takes time to shape up. The ‘third generation' rights are still beset by teething troubles, which means that their application will have to evolve with time ; they will reach maturity at a later stage... if ever, according to society and the whims of EDP, telematics and the audiovisual media.
