This summer course will deal in detail specifically and exclusively with European systems for the protection of human rights. It will concentrate on an integrated treatment of the various European systems and will specifically examine the roles played by the Council of Europe (the European Convention on Human Rights), the European Union, and the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in the protection of human rights. Also, to the extent that it is relevant, it will look at the role of the UN in this area on a universal level. Teaching methods consist of lectures, seminars, and moot courts.
