International and Regional Human Rights: Friends or Foe?
Nomos, 1. Edition 2021, 203 Pages
Description
Regional human rights mechanism are now in place covering nearly all five continents with the notable exception of Australia.
Regional and international human rights protection are not meant to thwart each other. On the contrary, the regional protection of human rights is intended to back up and strengthen the international one by translating human rights into local languages and supporting them with additional protective mechanisms like commissions and courts that enforce regional human rights documents.
In this volume, five experts from various continents will introduce regional human rights protection systems in Europe, Africa, Asia, Latin America and Australia providing an overview of the regional protections vis-à-vis the international one and then contextualising it in specific country context.
With contributions by
Prof. Olivier Dubos, Prof. Dr. Victor Guset, Dr. Emma Henderson, RA Prof. Dr. Bernd Kannowski, RA Bahame Tom Nyanduga, Prof. Dr. Carolina Olarte-Bácares und Prof. Dr. Kerstin Steiner
