Download or read book Supervision of the Execution of the Judgments of the European Court of Human Rights 2nd Annual Report 2008 written by Council of Europe Staff and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This annual report presents the Committee of Ministers' activities in 2008 concerning the supervision of the execution of the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights. It underlines the very close links between good execution, the proper implementation of the European Convention on Human Rights in the Council of Europe's member states and the case-load of the European Court of Human Rights. The report contains an introduction by the Chairs of the special Human Rights meetings held by the Committee of Ministers to supervise the execution process and a number of remarks by the Director General of Human Rights and Legal Affairs regarding developments in 2008. The execution process and ongoing reform work are also described. Appendices present detailed statistical information, both in general and by state. An important appendix is the thematic overview of major developments in the execution of pending cases. Themes relate to such matters as actions of security forces, detention, aliens, the functioning of the judiciary, freedom of religion, expression and association, the right to property, discrimination, etc. The Committee of Ministers' recent Recommendation (2008)2 is also presented. This text provides a number of recommendations to member states to improve their capacity to implement the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights (e.g. to designate a co-coordinator of the execution process). This is the second report since the Committee of Ministers decided in 2006 to publish annual reports (see Rules of the new Rules for the supervision of the execution of judgments of the European Court of Human Rights and of the terms of friendly settlements). The first report, for 2007, was presented in March 2008.

This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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.

Book The Execution of Judgments of the European Court of Human Rights

Download or read book The Execution of Judgments of the European Court of Human Rights written by Elisabeth Lambert-Abdelgawad and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important provision of the European Convention on Human Rights is that in the event of a violation being found, not only is the state in question required to redress the consequences of the violation vis-á-vis the applicant - by such means as reopening of proceedings at the origin of the violation, reversal of a judicial verdict, discontinuation of expulsion proceedings or, where necessary, payment of a monetary award to the applicant; but it must also take general measures to prevent the repetition of the violation. These latter measures may take the form, for example, of a change in legislation, recognition of the Court's judgment in national case-law, the appointment of extra judges or magistrates to absorb a backlog of cases, the construction of detention centres suitable for juvenile delinquents, the introduction of training for the police, or other similar steps. This second edition continues to examine both individual measures and general measures taken by states in accordance with the Court's judgments and with the supervisory proceedings of the Committee of Ministers, as published in its human rights (DH) resolutions.

Book The Right to Reparation in International Law for Victims of Armed Conflict

Download or read book The Right to Reparation in International Law for Victims of Armed Conflict written by Christine Evans and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-28 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this evaluation of the international legal standing of the right to reparation and its practical implementation at the national level, Christine Evans outlines State responsibility and examines the jurisprudence of the International Court of Justice, the Articles on State Responsibility of the International Law Commission and the convergence of norms in different branches of international law, notably human rights law, humanitarian law and international criminal law. Case studies of countries in which the United Nations has played a significant role in peace negotiations and post-conflict processes allow her to analyse to what extent transitional justice measures have promoted State responsibility for reparations, interacted with human rights mechanisms and prompted subsequent elaboration of domestic legislation and reparations policies. In conclusion, she argues for an emerging customary right for individuals to receive reparations for serious violations of human rights and a corresponding responsibility of States.

Book Parliaments and the European Court of Human Rights

Download or read book Parliaments and the European Court of Human Rights written by Alice Donald and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European system of human rights protection faces institutional and political pressures which threaten its very survival. These institional pressures stem from the backlog of applications before the European Court of Human Rights, the large number of its judgments that remain unimplemented, and the political pressures that arise from sustained attacks on the Court's legitimacy and authority, notably from politicians and jurists in the United Kingdom. This book addresses the theme which lies at the heart of these pressures: the role of national parliaments in the implementation of judgments of the Court. It combines theoretical and empirical insights into the role of parliaments in securing domestic compliance with the Court's decisions, and provides detailed investigation of five European states with differing records of human rights compliance and parliamentary mobilisation: Ukraine, Romania, the United Kingdom, Germany, and the Netherlands. How far are parliaments engaged in implementation, and how far should they be? Do parliaments advance or hinder human rights compliance? Is it ever justifiable for parliaments to defy judgments of the Court? And how significant is the role played by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe? Drawing on the fields of international law, international relations, political science, and political philosophy, the book argues that adverse human rights judgments not only confer obligations on parliamentarians but also create opportunities for them to develop influential interpretations of human rights and enhance their own democratic legitimacy. It makes an authoritative contribution to debate about the future of the European and other supranational human rights mechanisms and the broader relationship between democracy, human rights, and legitimate authority.
