Building upon the growing body of scholarship on the factors and
actors that influence the extent to which states implement human
rights law, this cutting-edge Research Handbook takes an
interdisciplinary approach to exploring the roles of actors within
supranational human rights bodies, the decisions and judgements
they make, and the tools they use to facilitate human rights
implementation. Eminent scholars and practitioners in the field
reflect on why states implement, or fail to implement, obligations
and decisions from the supranational level. The Research Handbook
reviews the relevant terminology, recent trends, and the
theoretical and methodological perspectives and strategies, before
rethinking these explanations and offering original scholarship on
human rights implementation. Chapters then consider the roles and
interplay of various domestic and international actors involved in
human rights implementation, including parliaments, national
courts, civil society and treaty bodies. The Research Handbook
concludes by assessing tools of implementation, including
monitoring systems, the role of negotiations and diplomacy,
compliance hearings, and the use of IT for compliance. Exploring
the entire process of human rights law implementation from
recommendation to execution to follow up, this comprehensive
Research Handbook will be an invaluable resource to students,
scholars and practitioners interested in the decisions and
judgements behind the implementation of human rights law.
This volume provides an overview of research from the learning
sciences into understanding, enhancing, and measuring "deep
comprehension" from a psychological, educational, and psychometric
perspective. It describes the characteristics of deep
comprehension, what techniques may be used to improve it, and how
deep levels of comprehension may be distinguished from shallow
ones. It includes research on personal-level variables; how
intelligent tutors promote comprehension; and the latest
developments in psychometrics. The volume will be of interest to
senior undergraduate and graduate students of cognitive psychology,
learning, cognition and instruction, and educational technology.

An 'implementation crisis' has been identified in the enforcement
of rulings of UN and regional human rights bodies, and fundamental
but crucial questions remain unanswered: what exactly does it mean
to implement and comply with international and regional human
rights decisions, and what factors influence whether a state
implements and complies or not? Much more is now known about the
work of the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights, but a
gap still exists in the literature on the implementation of the
findings of the Commission. This book draws upon the data and
evaluation from a four-year research project, analysing the range
of pronouncements of the African Commission, including its
decisions on individual communications, provisional measures,
resolutions, and promotional and protective mission reports. It
investigates the extent to which states implement these findings
and examines how that implementation is monitored by others.
