The European Convention on Human Rights is one of the world's most
important and influential human rights documents. It owes its value
mainly to the European Court of Human Rights, which applies the
Convention rights in individual cases. This book offers a clear
insight into the concepts and principles that are key to
understanding the European Convention and the Court's case-law. It
explains how the Court generally approaches the many cases brought
before it and which tools help it to decide on these cases,
illustrated by numerous examples taken from the Court's judgements.
Core issues discussed are the types of Convention rights (such as
absolute rights); the structure of the Court's Convention rights
review; principles and methods of interpretation (such as common
ground interpretation and the use of precedent); positive and
negative obligations; vertical and horizontal effect; the margin of
appreciation doctrine; and requirements for the restriction of
Convention rights.
