Reviews / Votes
'The ECtHR's procedural jurisprudence is extensive and often complex. Gerhard Kreutzer presents its key principles in a clear, structured, and accessible form, distilling the Court's reasoning. Building on his work on substantive guarantees, this volume is an original, innovative, and valuable resource for those working within the Convention system. It is also a worthy addition to the distinguished catalogue of Edward Elgar Publishing.' -- Georgios A. Serghides, Former Judge of the European Court of Human RightsMore details
