New edited book on the Inter-American Human Rights System

We are very pleased to inform you that the edited book published in collaboration with the Inter-American Human Rights (http://interamericanhumanrights.org/) is now finally out:

This volume brings together innovative work from emerging and leading scholars in international law and political science to critically examine the impact of the Inter-American Human Rights System (IAHRS). By leveraging a variety of theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches, the contributors assess the impact of the IAHRS on domestic human rights change in Latin America. More specifically, the book provides a nuanced analysis of the System’s impact by examining the ways in which the IAHRS influences domestic actors and political institutions advancing the realisation of human rights. This work will be of interest to students and scholars of human rights and Latin American politics, as well as to those engaged with the nexus of international law and domestic politics and the dynamics of international and regional institutions.

We hope that it will contribute to ongoing debates on the IAHRS, and on human rights more broadly.
