From the perspective of a number of different social science
disciplines, this book explores the ways in which the election of
politicians can be made more fair and credible by adopting a human
rights approach to elections. It discusses existing international
standards for the conduct of elections and presents case studies
relating to jurisdictions within Europe, especially those emerging
from conflict or from an authoritarian past, which demonstrate how
problems occur and can be addressed. Significant advances have been
achieved through the Council of Europe's soft and hard law
frameworks but the book demonstrates that much more needs to be
done to ensure that these and other standards are fully adhered to
and developed. This collection offers a fresh examination of
electoral rights and practices - and their impact on the quality of
democracy - by superimposing a human rights perspective on existing
election theories derived from the literatures of law, political
science and international relations. This text will be of key
interest to scholars, students and practitioners of electoral
democracy and human rights, as well as those working in the areas
of comparative politics and European politics.
