Abstract

Abstract This chapter presents Article 17 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which prohibits the abuse of rights set forth in the Convention. It begins with a short introduction, placing the provision within the context of international human rights law more generally. It then reviews the drafting history or preparatory work of the provision; discusses the interpretation of the text and the legal issues, with references to the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and the European Commission on Human Rights; and concludes with a selective bibliography on the provision.
