Overview

The system for the protection of human rights under the European Convention to Human Rights (`ECHR') represents the most complete judicial model for protecting such rights. The case law of the Court of Human Rights has elaborated and defined the substantive rights so that there is now a detailed set of standards for State conduct towards those within their jurisdiction. This completely re-written new edition of Francis Jacob's 1975 book on the Convention takes the case law of the Court as its starting point, but also offers full consideration of the Commission's case law on questions of admissability. The result is a highly readable text which both explains the procedural aspects of bringing a case to Strasbourg (including the changes contained in Protocol No. 11) and analyses the substantive law of the Convention. This book is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate stuents, and practitioners interested in European Human Rights Law, International Human Rights law, domestic civil liberties.
