The inter-American human rights system: creation and institutional development (1960-2010).
Keywords:
inter-American human rights system, institutional change, Organization of American States, Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, Inter-American Court of Human RightsAbstract
The article evaluates the institutional development and the different historical stages of the inter-American human rights system in the period between the 1960s and the end of the 2000s, thus filling an important gap in the Brazilian academic literature. To this end, it adopts a bibliographical review methodology, and defends an approach that sees the inter-American system not from a doctrinal and legal point of view, but rather as a political-legal arena of disputes, with multiple and distinct actors and interests in conflict.
