Reviews
Jonas Christoffersen's book is undoubtedly one of the most important publications on the Convention and the Court in recent years. Such is his mastery of both the details and the overall picture that he exhibits a keen sense of what is the reality of the Strasbourg mechanisms. As the author discusses and appraises these major notions, he brings a fresh, coherent and innovative order into well-known battle zones. Again and again I have found his views helpful and realistic, sometimes challenging, but always well worth studying. Given the breadth of Christoffersen's ambition, one could always find points to quibble about. But there is no doubt that this is an enriching and immensely learned book. Past president of the European Court, professor Luzius Wildhaber.
