This Second Edition of The Child and the European Court of Human Rights has been fully revised to expand and update the reader on ECHR developments on children's issues and the substantial growth in the case law of the European Court with regard to children since publication of the First Edition in 1999.
The strength of the work remains that it discusses the case law of the Court from a child's perspective, adopting an approach to ECHR law that is applicable across the entire 47 member states of the Council of Europe.
The book retains its almost exclusive analysis on the ECHR law regarding children while international law and consensus, including the CRC and other developments, and its associated literature continue to be discussed where relevant.
