Verticality and Struggles over Human Rights

Head back to programme.

Next session: 15:45-17:00 CET/9:45-11:00 EST

How do different legal orders interact vertically? Is this interaction marked by conflict and contestation, or by compromise and collaboration? This panel looks at three different such interactions: between domestic courts and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights; between regional human rights courts and United Nations Treaty Bodies; and between Swiss domestic law and the lex sportiva.
