This volume contributes to the on-going legal discussion on
pressing procedural and substantial law issues in the ambit of
international human rights and civil liberties. While the 20th
century has seen the true awakening of human rights, the 21st
century poses new challenges to this ever-unfolding area of law.
Not only do international tribunals and quasi-tribunals worldwide
and domestic US and European continental courts have to deal with
increasing numbers of complaints and petitions from individuals and
groups on a vast array of societal problems, the legal issues put
to them are sometimes extremely difficult to resolve as they relate
to very sensitive issues. This book examines issues ranging from
the status of human rights under US law to the status of the ECHR
in the broader context of international law. It looks at the role
of positive obligations in the case law of the Strasbourg Court, as
well the impact of its case-law on childbirth and push-back
operation towards boat people, but also at the growing
unwillingness of ECHR member states to cooperate with the
Strasbourg Court. It explores the new frontiers in US Capital
punishment litigation, the first case before the International
Criminal Court and the legal effect of judgments of the European
Court on third states.
