Zusammenfassung

Dieses Buch untersucht die Anordnungen der Menschenrechtsgerichtshöfe zur Reform von innerstaatlichen Gesetzen. In dieser umfassenden Studie über gesetzgeberische Rechtsfolgemaßnahmen wird die Praxis der drei regionalen Menschenrechtsgerichtshöfe vergleichend analysiert und normativ bewertet. Es wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob diese Rechtsfolgemaßnahmen eine Besonderheit der Menschenrechtsgerichtsbarkeit sind, wann und wie sie eingesetzt werden und welche Folgen sie haben. Das Buch zeigt dabei, dass die Verwendung von gesetzgeberischen Rechtsfolgemaßnahmen das Selbstverständnis der einzelnen Menschenrechtsgerichtshöfe widerspiegelt, sowie auch den Kontext, in dem sie tätig sind, und ihre sich entwickelnde Rolle in den jeweiligen Regionen.
