Both in Europe and around the world, 2017 has been another difficult year for the protection of human rights. Examples of the increased pressure on the European human rights system are apparent: the attack on the independence of the judiciary in Poland, which was responded to by the first time initiation of the rule of law procedure by the European Commission; the increasing human rights issues arising from European migration policy; Russia’s suspension of its financial contribution to the Council of Europe and Turkey’s lowering of its contribution; and the difficulties in appointing key human rights positions in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. Split into its customary four parts and complemented by book reviews of recent publications on human rights in Europe, the tenth volume of the European Yearbook on Human Rights brings together renowned scholars to analyse some of the most pressing and topical human rights issues being faced in Europe today.
The European Yearbook on Human Rights offers a platform for both young and renowned scholars in the field of human rights and provides in-depth analysis, current information, and critical insights on key human rights issues in Europe and beyond.
2018 has been another challenging year for human rights in Europe and globally. International human rights standards, the rule of law and international human rights institutions have come under increasing pressure. The eleventh volume of the European Yearbook on Human Rights discusses the backgrounds of these developments and outlines the potential implications and possible solutions. The backsliding of democracy in Poland and Hungary, the human rights fallout from Brexit and the human rights situations in Chechnya and the Ukraine are mentioned as just a few examples. The Yearbook also includes contributions on all-time classics such as the right to freedom of expression or fair trial and tensions between security and the protection of human rights, as well as more recent developments on the rights of persons with disabilities and the rights of children to be heard in political processes. The European Yearbook on Human Rights brings together renowned scholars, emerging voices and practitioners. Split into parts devoted to recent developments in the European Union, the Council of Europe and the OSCE as well as through reports from the field, the contributions engage with some of the most important human rights issues and developments in Europe. The Yearbook helps to better understand the rich landscape of the European regional human rights system and is intended to stimulate discussions, critical thinking and further research in this field.
2014 was a year of transition and controversy in Europe: a new Parliament and new Commission were constituted and Opinion 2/13 of the Court of Justice of the European Union on the EU's accession to the European Convention on Human Rights raised serious questions about the coherence and future character of the human rights protection regimes in Europe. European Yearbook on Human Rights 2015 explains and contextualizes the key developments in human rights, providing much needed analysis. Edited jointly by representatives of four major European human rights research, teaching, and training institutions, the Yearbook covers political and legal developments in the field of the three main organizations charged with securing human rights in Europe: the EU, the Council of Europe, and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe. Now in its seventh edition, the Yearbook remains essential reading for anyone interested in human rights in Europe and the world.

The protection of human rights lies at the very core of European integration. But considering the multitude of activities by the EU, the Council of Europe, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), it is often difficult to keep track. In-depth analysis by human rights experts is important for understanding changing paradigms and assessing emerging trends. For this purpose, this first volume of the new European Yearbook on Human Rights, which is edited jointly by representatives of four major European human rights institutions, brings together 20 contributions by renowned European human rights experts. The Yearbook's innovative structure allows for quick orientation and direct access to the many facets of Europe's culture of human rights. Opening with three articles on the topical issues of the year, the Yearbook contains extensive sections on the developments of the three most important European organizations charged with securing human rights: the EU, the Council of Europe, and the OSCE. A further chapter looks at the role of civil society and cross-cutting issues in human rights protection. Multi-disciplinary and eminently readable, European Yearbook on Human Rights 09 provides its readers with a comprehensive overview of the human rights situation in Europe in 2008.
This survey of human rights in Europe and beyond identifies an increased tension in the protection of economic, social, and cultural rights. Vulnerable groups - from migrants to children, from victims of human trafficking to victims of gender-based violence - have also moved squarely into the center of both the discourse and practice of human rights protection. This volume contextualizes these trends. Defining and discussing key developments in human rights, the 2014 Yearbook brings together more than 30 contributions by renowned human rights experts that provide a much-needed overview and sought-after analysis. Edited jointly by representatives of four major European human rights research, teaching and training institutions, the book extensively covers political and legal developments in the field of the three main organizations charged with securing human rights in Europe: the EU, the Council of Europe, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. A further section contains contributions on the role of civil society in human rights protection and on cross-cutting topics. The impressive array of authors - academics, diplomats, practitioners, and human rights experts - makes the book essential reading for anyone interested in human rights in Europe and beyond.
