Notably, it granted this right to both citizens and inhabitants. The 1865 Constitution continued to protect this right, but added the stipulation that “writing injurious to particular persons cannot be published unless subscribed by the author, and with the publication of his name.” Article 85 of the constitution written in 1965 cements the freedom of expression. In 1969 Honduras signed the American Convention on Human Rights, which asserted freedom of expression.
