SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
One provision of the European Convention on Human Rights states that in the event of violation not only is the state in question required to redress the consequences of the violation vis-á-vis the applicant, by such means as reopening of proceedings at the origin of the violation, reversal of a judicial verdict, discontinuation of expulsion proceedings or, where necessary, payment of a monetary award to the applicant, but it must also take general measures to prevent the repetition of the violation. These latter measures may take the form, for example, of a change in legislation, recognition of the Court's judgment in national case-law, the appointment of extra judges or magistrates to absorb a backlog of cases, the construction of detention centers suitable for juvenile delinquents, the introduction of training for the police, or other similar steps. This study examines both individual measures and general measures taken by states in accordance with the Court's judgments and with the supervisory proceedings of the Committee of Ministers, as published in its human rights (DH) resolutions.--Publisher's description.
