European Human Rights Law, published in 1990, was the first attempt at introducing American law students to the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights, a court that has been remarkably successful in developing and applying a law of human rights that is, in many ways, parallel to the constitutional protections established in the United States. Since the publication of this first edition, the ECHR has cited nearly as many cases in the past five years as from its founding in the 1950s. This second edition of European Human Rights Law incorporates these new cases, a chapter review of structural changes now pending ratification, and a review of changes in the Strasbourg system resulting from the admission of the newly democratic states of Central and Eastern Europe. Also included are chapters on Article 5: the Right to Liberty, and on the application of the treaty in domestic law, focusing on Britain. Thoroughly revised, updated, and expanded, this popular text and materials book places the European Convention within a comparative framework discussing cases from the US, Canada, and the UK. This book will continue to prove popular with students and teachers as a teaching resource and to practitioners as a work of reference.

The European Convention on Human Rights has attained a tremendous significance in the jurisdiction of European States--particularly the UK--and is widely acknowledged to be the standard by which other regional Human Rights instruments are measured. It is now vitally important for students and practitioners to be familiar with the case law, jurisdiction and procedures of the European Court of Human Rights. In this work, the authors introduce the process and substance of European Human Rights law. Thoroughly revised, updated and expanded, this popular text and materials book places the European Convention within a comparative framework discussing cases from the US, Canada and the UK. The book includes a full assessment of the widening of the Strasbourg system to include the newly democratic states of Central and Eastern Europe. This book will continue to prove popular with students and teachers as a teaching resource and to practitioners as a work of reference.

The third edition of European Human Rights Law: Text and Materials has been substantially expanded to provide a complete review of the wide range of rights the Convention protects, with new chapters on the right to life, property, discrimination, religious freedom, and education. The book introduces both the process and the substance of this increasingly important area of European law. A broad selection of extracts from essential cases and materials is accompanied by stimulating commentary that guides the reader through the legal rules and court system that have evolved in Strasbourg, how the court works, and how European human rights law is enforced both at the national and international level. European human rights law is also placed into a useful comparative framework alongside human rights cases decided by courts in the United States, Canada, and elsewhere. This third edition has been extensively updated to cover the major developments of recent years, including the reform of the European Court of Human Rights and the expansion of the system to central and eastern Europe.
