The European Court of Human Rights increasingly refers to international law in its case law, but its interpretation of it is often problematic. This book examines whether the Court has been able to create a coherent approach to the evaluation of international law and, ultimately, whether it has been able to contribute to its development.
The law of treaties -- International Court of Justice -- Child rights -- Civil and political rights -- Prohibition on torture and other ill-treatment -- Refugee rights -- State immunity -- International humanitarian law.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [406]-415) and index.
