Wildy's Book of the Month: December 2019
The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights is one of the components of the International Bill of Rights. This is an article-by-article commentary on the Covenant and its two Optional Protocols.
For each provision, the preparatory work as well as the case law of the Human Rights Committee and the concluding observations on periodic reports by States Parties is reviewed. It is the third edition, substantially revising the second edition which was published in 2005.
