International Human Rights Law: Sources and Monitoring Mechanisms (Volume I)

International Human Rights Law: Sources and Monitoring Mechanisms (Volume I) examines the legal framework governing the international protection of human rights by analyzing its principal sources and the mechanisms established to ensure compliance. The book explores treaty-based and customary sources of human rights law, as well as general principles and the role of international instruments in shaping legal obligations.

It also analyzes international monitoring mechanisms, both treaty-based and non-treaty-based, highlighting their functions, procedures, and limitations in addressing human rights violations. This volume provides a foundational and methodical introduction to the structure of international human rights law, making it a valuable reference for students, researchers, and practitioners.
