European Human Rights : Research Guide

This is a useful starting point for any researcher of the European human rights system because it portrays the system within the current international and regional context both at the governmental and non-governmental level. Part of the 10th chapter on regional human rights arrangements is dedicated to the European Convention system (p. 786 et seq.). In addition, the European Convention on Human Rights and its Protocols are published in the annex.

This book deals with the European Convention on Human Rights systematically, article by article, considering the development and scope of each article, together with the relevant case-law and literature.

This journal views itself as a "forum for serious debate on the European Convention on Human Rights." Among the authors published are UN functionaries, and U.K. barristers, and judges. On the editorial board there are representatives of the European academe and non-governmental organizations, U.K. practitioners, and members of the European and U.K. judiciary. Aside from featured articles, the journal also contains summaries of cases of the European Court of Human Rights, under the rubric "Cases and Comment."
