Unlocking Human Rights Summary

Unlocking Human Rights by Peter Halstead

Unlocking Human Rights covers all the substantive provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights and the operation of the Human Rights Act. Basic aspects and key terms of human rights including their origin and development over the centuries are comprehensively explained through to how human rights regimes operate outside of Europe and United Kingdom.

Unlocking Human Rights includes an invaluable section indicating how to tackle essay questions and scenario-based examination and coursework questions. The study of human rights encompasses wider issues compared with many other law subjects and this extra practical material will help students to understand the nature and importance of human rights in the modern world. Unlocking Human Rights will provide you with the tools you need to engage with and understand Human Rights law.
