Exporting the European Convention on Human Rights

Maria-Louiza Deftou

The ECHR's impact is considerable, nationally and supranationally. To what degree has that influence seen  its norms, doctrines and methods of interpretation being exported into other human rights systems? This book answers that question by exploring the judicial dialogue of the ECHR system with comparable legal orders. It takes a horizontal study of regional and global systems to identify the impact of the ECHR within the confines of their jurisprudence. It analyses the legal consequences of the extension of these norms and what it means for the functioning of international human rights law. A compelling study for European and international human rights scholars.

Maria-Louiza Deftou teaches international law and international human rights law at the School of Law of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece.
