2. The right to marry

The European Convention on Human Rights is probably the most effective system of international human rights control created. This book examines the story of the evolution of the Convention over its first 50 years. It explains how the Convention system grew up and how it came to exert such an important influence on the States which subscribe to it.

The subject area of this book has become increasingly important due to an increase in the number of European Court of Human Rights cases and because the European Convention on Human Rights will, with its incorporation into domestic law, become far more popular as the subject of courses in this country. The book concentrates on the rights protected, with just one chapter on the machinery of implementation and will thus be an ideal companion volume to Harris, O'Boyle and Warbrick: Law of the European Convention on Human Rights.
