Brice Dickson examines the engagement of the United Kingdom with
international human rights monitorin1g mechanisms, in particular
those operated by the United Nations and the Council of Europe
since 2000. Dickson explores how these mechanisms work in practice
and whether they have any identifiable impact on how human rights
are protected in the UK. By analysing the role that monitoring
mechanisms are meant to play in enforcing human rights standards,
and the UK's commitment to that role, Dickson considers in turn the
work of general monitoring mechanisms, mechanisms focused on civil
and political rights or on social and economic rights, and
mechanisms assessing discrimination based on gender, race, age or
disability. The book demonstrates that, while monitoring mechanisms
certainly play a crucial role in holding the UK government to
account, crediting them with enhancing the protection of any
specific right is problematic. Providing a comprehensive study of
the operation of international human rights monitoring mechanisms,
this book will be an insightful resource for human rights law
students and scholars, particularly those concerned with civil,
social and non-discrimination rights. Academics interested in
public international law and politics will also benefit from this
text.
