This Summer Course, held in English, will deal in detail specifically
with the European system of human rights protection. Although there are
numerous summer courses and other special study programs within Europe

European issues of human rights protection.It emphasises, therefore,

includes human rights protection within the regimes of the Council of
Europe (the European Convention of Human Rights and the European Social
Charter), the European Community and the Organisation for Security and

Co-operation in Europe (Helsinki Accords), as well human rights

relevant to Europe. The treatment of the substantive regimes and their specific rights catalogues

is set against the background of a consideration of the philosophical, historical,
political, economic and sociological aspects of human rights, and
includes practical institutional matters such as complaint procedures as
well as developments such as the so called 'New Rights'. Practical and
contemporary issues, such as the protection of human rights in
situations of war or civil disorder, will also be addressed.
