The European Convention on Human Rights stands as one of the most significant and influential human rights instruments in the world. Its significance primarily stems from the role of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), which interprets and applies the provisions of the Convention in individual cases. This comprehensive book provides valuable insights into the core concepts and principles that underpin the European Convention and the Court's case law. It elucidates the Court's approach to cases and its decision-making process, using numerous examples drawn from its judgments. Key issues explored include the various types of Convention rights, such as absolute rights; the structure of the Court's review of Convention rights; principles and methods of interpretation, including common-ground interpretation and the use of precedent; positive and negative obligations; the vertical and horizontal effects of Convention rights; the margin of appreciation doctrine; and the requirements for restricting Convention rights. By delving into these topics, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of the European Convention and the ECHR's role in safeguarding human rights. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and anyone interested in the field of international human rights law.
