This book critically appraises the European Convention on Human Rights at a time of considerable change. It argues that the Convention's core functions have subtly changed, particularly since the ending of the Cold War, and that these are now to articulate an'abstract constitutional model'for the entire continent and to promote convergence in the operation of public institutions at every level of governance. The implications - from national compliance to European international relations - are explored, and proposals offered for meeting old and new challenges.

Rezensionen
'Professor Greer's new book is wonderful. It is a much needed work, expertly and objectively appraising the history and performance of the European Convention and Court of Human Rights, and intelligently setting out a thought-provoking agenda for their reform. The book will be extraordinarily useful both for those interested in the Strasbourg legal system and for anyone curious about the potential for international human rights law in today's world' Mark Weston Janis, William F. Starr Professor of Law, University of Connecticut
