Sanchez tackles a central tension in global governance: how international human rights courts balance their mandates with the imperative to respect national sovereignty. \u003c\/b\u003eDespite having similar mandates, the world's three regional human rights courts – the European Court of Human Rights, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights – interpret their authority differently, leading to uneven regional enforcement of global human rights principles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaria A. Sanchez traces how the geopolitical dynamics of each court's founding moments have manifested in contemporary disparities across the courts' jurisprudences – focusing on disputes involving freedom of expression, personal integrity rights, and LGBTQ+ rights. Her findings expose a paradox: the courts that were founded in the most inhospitable environments for human rights have ended up asserting the most expansive authority over governments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeeply researched and insightful,\u003ci\u003e Deference and Divergence in Regional Human Rights Courts\u003c\/i\u003e speaks to when and how international institutions can leverage authority to intervene in domestic affairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cornell University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52610567799064,"sku":"9781501785504","price":86.76,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/deference-and-divergence-in-regional-human-rights-courts-hardback-9781501785504","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
