The European Convention on Human Rights and Private Law: Comparative Perspectives from South-Eastern Europe

In this book a team of expert contributors address challenging issues concerning the relationship between private law and the rule of law and human rights, with specific focus on case studies from South-Eastern Europe.

The book examines the broadening application of human rights to the private law fields and the resulting effects. Contributors offer a truly interdisciplinary perspective drawn from comparative law, civil law, procedural law and public law. By so doing, for the first time, they offer insights into the fascinating questions the region poses for private law and human rights.
