Disputes on human rights violation before the ecowas court of justice - Paperback

by Alioune Sall (Author)

Mandated to make judgments on human rights cases since 2005, the ECOWAS Court of Justice has undeniably acquired the reputation of a forum for human rights protection. Part I of the book presents the body of case law emerging after fifteen years of practice. Part II is made up of a collection of studies whose themes centre on the major interrogations of international disputes on human rights. Part II closes up with a prospective reflexion on "The Future of the Court", where the author expresses his hopes, but also his serious concerns regarding what is to become of a court whose usefulness and cathartic function are not lost on him.
