This book critically examines the effectiveness of the Council of Europe's human rights protection architecture in European areas of conflict.
This book critically examines the effectiveness of the Council of Europe's human rights system in conflict-affected regions. It advances a new approach to understanding how the European Convention on Human Rights can be made more practical and effective for the 10+ million rights-holders living in so-called human rights 'grey zones'.Forde examines the effectiveness of the human rights system of the Council of Europe (CoE) in conflict-affected regions and advances a novel approach to understanding how the European Convention on Human Rights can better serve the 10+ million rights-holders living in so-called human rights 'grey zones'. Building on the premise that nowhere in Europe should be deprived of access to Europe's human rights architecture, Forde argues that areas of conflict give rise to a collective public order imperative on Member States to seek maximal effectiveness of the CoE human rights system. Despite Kosovo's sui generis status, much of the CoE's experience of engagement with Kosovo could inspire more proactive efforts in relation to other areas of conflict. This book advocates a judicious engagement of the CoE's unique assets and acquis in affected regions based on the collective responsibility of Member States and the normative will of the Secretary General.
