Cases and Materials on the European Convention on Human Rights
This second edition provides students with a selection of the leading jurisprudence, together with commentary, on the major rights enshrined in the European Convention of Human Rights. It also examines the creation of the Convention, and the role of the institutions and remedies available at the European level.
'Hard Power' and the European Convention on Human Rights
The European Convention on Human Rights is now crucial to decisions to be taken by the military and their political leaders in 'hard power' situations - that is, classical international and non-international armed conflict, belligerent occupation, peacekeeping and peace-enforcing and anti-terrorism and anti-piracy operations, but also hybrid warfare, cyber-attack and targeted assassination. Guidance is needed, therefore, on how Convention law relates to these decisions.0That guidance is precisely what this book aims to offer. It focuses primarily on States' accountability under the Convention, but also shows that human rights law, used creatively, can actually help States achieve their objectives.
Human Rights Law
A considered balance of depth, detail, context, and critique, Directions books offer the most student-friendly guide to the subject; they empower students to evaluate the law, understand its practical application, and approach assessments with confidence.
The European Court of Human Rights
This insightful book considers how the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) is faced with numerous challenges which emanate from authoritarian and populist tendencies arising across its member states. It argues that it is now time to reassess how the ECHR responds to such challenges to the protection of human rights in the light of its historical origins.
Jacobs, White & Ovey: The European Convention on Human Rights
"The highly experienced and respected authors select the most important case law and give a highly authoritative, concise account of the European Convention on Human Rights. Focuses on the European Convention itself rather than its implementation in any one member state, and so is essential reading for human rights students across Europe. Examines each Convention right in turn, with a newly revised structure to map even more closely to human rights courses. As a lecturer and a practitioner, the authors are perfectly placed to provide up-to-date coverage of Strasbourg case law and explain it in a lively, straightforward manner" -- From publisher's website.
The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is the most extensive and widely ratified international human rights treaty. This Commentary offers a comprehensive analysis of each of the substantive provisions in the Convention and its Optional Protocols on Children and Armed Conflict, and the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Pornography. It provides a detailed insight into the drafting history of these instruments, the scope and nature of the rights accorded to children, and the obligations imposed on states to secure the implementation of these rights. In doing so, it draws on the work of the Committee on the Rights of the Child, international, regional, and domestic courts, academic and interdisciplinary scholarly analyses. It is of relevance to anyone working on matters affecting children including government officials, policy makers, judicial officers, lawyers, educators, social workers, health professionals, academics, aid and humanitarian workers, and members of civil society.
