An assessment of the European Court of Human Rights at the national, European and international levels.

The European Court of Human Rights in a National, European and Global Context

Constituting Europe

De internasjonale menneskerettighetene er under diskusjon både internasjonalt og i Norge. Noen mener at beskyttelsen av disse rettighetene ikke er god nok. Andre hevder at det har gått inflasjon i hva som kalles menneskerettigheter, og at det internasjonale systemet gjør store inngrep i hva som bør overlates til nasjonale demokratiske organer.

rettsutvikling, rettsliggjøring og demokrati

Menneskerettighetene og Norge

Johan Karlsson Schaffer

The past sixty years have seen an expansion of international human rights conventions and supervisory organs, not least in Europe. While these international legal instruments have enlarged their mandate, they have also faced opposition and criticism from political actors at the state level, even in well-functioning democracies. Against the backdrop of such contestations, this book brings together prominent scholars in law, political philosophy and international relations in order to address the legitimacy of international human rights regimes as a theoretically challenging and politically salient case of international authority. It provides a unique and thorough overview of the legitimacy problems involved in the global governance of human rights.
