The UN Mechanisms for Human Rights Protection: Strengthening Treaty Bodies in Light of a Proposal to Create a World Court of Human Rights

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This article discusses the universal level of human rights protection, in particular the work of the treaty bodies in relation to their efficiency and contribution to the improvement of the human rights situation. The treaty bodies on the one hand examine state reports and recommend changes in the states? policy. On the other hand they operate as quasijudicial bodies, but without the authority to render legally binding decisions. After providing a short background, the most critical deficiencies of thesystem are analyzed. The most significant of these is the lack of cooperation on the part of the states. Furthermore, there are other shortcomings regarding a significant backlog on the part of the treaty bodies, as well as inadequate qualifications andguaranties of independence of the treaty body members, mainly in relation to their competence to consider individual complaints. The paper further explains the reaction of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and her proposed measure
