The first book-length study of human rights in the Council of Europe and the European Union, this volume makes a vital contribution to the post-Brexit debate in the UK by providing concise, authoritative summaries of the case law of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) and the fundamental rights case law of the European Court of Justice.

This book critically appraises the European Convention on Human Rights at a time of considerable change. It argues that the Convention's core functions have subtly changed, particularly since the ending of the Cold War. The implications of this are fully explored and a coherent set of policy proposals offered.
