The court redefines torture in Europe -- The conditions for audacity -- Inside the court : its trade-offs and zone of discretion -- Mapping out norm change -- From compromise to absolutism? Gradual transformation under the old court's watch -- New court, new thresholds, new obligations -- Change unopposed : the court's embrace of positive obligations -- Legal change in times of backlash -- Conclusion.
"Through legal and social science-based analyses, this book explains why international courts underutilize their power and traces how this impacts international norms. Using the norm against torture and inhumane or degrading treatment as an example, it systematically analyses c.2,300 judgements from the European Court of Human Rights, 1967-2016"-- Provided by publisher.
