The Right to Equality in European Human Rights Law (eBook, ePUB)

The Quest for Substance in the Jurisprudence of the European Courts

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A right to equality and non-discrimination is widely seen as fundamental in democratic legal systems. But failure to identify the human interest that equality aims to uphold reinforces the argument of those who attack it as morally empty or unsubstantiated, and weakens its status as a fundamental human right. This book argues that an understanding of the human interest which equality aims to uphold is feasible within the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) and the European Court of Justice (ECJ).
