Overview

The Inter-State Application under the European Convention on Human Rights provides the first comprehensive monograph about the State-to-State human rights enforcement mechanism. The functions of the mechanism include also dispute settlement aspects, which are related to the compulsory jurisdiction of the Strasbourg Court. The study provides a full account of the development of the Inter-State Application under Article 33 ECHR and puts its case law in the relevant historical and institutional context. The analysis concludes with detailed reform considerations which are situated within the discussion about the role of the European Court of Human Rights. The focus lies on the possibility to address and improve systemic human rights deficits beyond the single case. The Court’s growing inter-State docket evidences the need for legal certainty.

Reviews

[This volume] highlights a rich history in terms of the small but significant contribution the inter-state application procedure has made to ECHR jurisprudence, and its clear relevance today. There is little doubt that the book fills a gap in the literature. It should be of major interest to any scholar or practitioner of the ECHR, as well as regional and international human rights more widely. David Keane Human Rights Law Review,Volume 19, Issue 1, February 2019, Pages 187-191. Das vorliegende Buch bietet eine umfassende Auseinandersetzung mit einem bislang eher stiefmutterlich behandelten Thema und streicht die Potentiale des Staatenbeschwerdemechanismus heraus. Auch wenn eine Reform desselben in der Praxis gewiss nicht leicht durchzubringen sein wird, bietet das Werk von Risini dazu wichtige Denkanstoesse. Stefan Kieber, NLMR 2018, 490. [...] last year an important book on the often-overlooked other contentious role of the Court (beyond deciding in individual cases) was published. ECHR Blog, Antoine Buyse (Professor of human rights in a multidisciplinary perspective and director of the Netherlands Institute of Human Rights (SIM) at Utrecht University). ...an inspiration for understating the challenges and opportunities of a compulsory system...this monograph offers an unprecedented analysis of the inter-state application procedure under article 33 at a time when inter-state applications seem to be gaining momentum . British Yearbook of International Law, 2020. Isabella Risini's study is an excellent reference work and the ultimate compendium for all questions concerning the theory, practice and functions of the inter-state application under the Convention.
