Résumé / Abstract : "This book offers a systematic commentary on the principal human rights treaty of the inter-American system: the American Convention on Human Rights. The Convention was adopted in 1969, and has been ratified mostly by Latin American States, with 23 States Parties. The commentary provides an understanding of how the human rights protected by this treaty have been interpreted in the various cases examined by the protection bodies, the Inter-American Commission on HumanRights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. It also explains the workings of the protection system, including the individual complaints mechanism"
