This textbook provides a thorough and systematic overview of human
rights law, including the most relevant practice and case law, but
also dealing with theoretical issues. It pursues an original
approach, seeking to reconcile its didactic purpose with a
scientific one, positing that there must be a necessary synergy
between these two purposes. Furthermore, the author is convinced
that international human rights law should not be studied (as is
done in virtually every textbook) as a special legal regime,
separate and autonomous from the overall system of international
law; but as a regime that is fully integrated into the
international legal order. The book's dominant theme is the
interrelationship of international human rights law and general
international law. Following this approach, the author has chosen
to devote comparatively little content to institutional issues
(Part IV) and to instead more intensively explore the structural
impact of human rights law on the entire international order (Part
I); on the sources (Part II) and obligations (Part III) of general
international law; and what constitutes "fundamental" human rights
(Part V), without neglecting other rights (Part VI).
