Leander Beinlich - Böcker

How does international law entitle individuals to challenge violations of international law before domestic courts? Developing the novel concept of access rights, Leander Beinlich takes a thorough look at the domestic adjudication of international law through the lens of individual rights.Beinlich provides an in-depth survey of the main access rights: the right to a remedy and the right of access to a court. In an unprecedented analysis, he applies his findings to cases of external state action such as military operations abroad, a domain traditionally characterized by accountability gaps. Access to Domestic Justice for Violations of International Law presents crucial insights into the value, risks and limitations of individual rights at the intersection of international law and foreign relations law. It demonstrates how access rights put to a test the doctrinal hurdles and normative concerns impeding access to justice in this area, paving the way for further research.An essential read for students and academics in international law and human rights law as well as public law and foreign relations law, this book’s relevance for the growing case law will also greatly benefit practising lawyers, judges and NGOs.
