European Union and the European Convention on Human Rights – the accession of a giant
Ema Menđušić Škugor
Sažetak
The European Union, as well as the Council of Europe have long been significant actors in the field of human rights protection. The most important mechanism created to preserve human rights is the Europen Convention on Human Rights. Recognizing its importance, the EU now wishes to accede to this document. The legal background for accession has been created, and a positive political environment exists, fastening this complex process. But, the accession has yet to be carried out and its outcome is considered uncertain. Nevertheless, we must respect the efforts of the parties included to take this neccessary step in stronger human rights protection in Europe.
