Description:
This open access book asks, who is a vulnerable person in human rights law?It assesses the treatment of vulnerability by the European Court of Human Rights, an area that has been surprisingly underexplored by European human rights law to date. It explores legal-philosophical understandings of the topic, providing a theoretical framework that can be used when examining the question. Not confining itself to the abstract, however, it provides a bridge from the theoretical to the practical by undertaking a comprehensive examination of the Court’s approach under Article 3 ECHR. It also pays particular attention to the concept of human dignity.Well written and compellingly argued, this is an important new book for all scholars of European human rights.Volume 106 in the Series Modern Studies in European Law
