Regional courts like the European Court of Human Rights and universal UN Human Rights bodies are increasingly criticized by states and members of civil society. Is this a short-term phenomenon concerning a long-term development towards an ever growing juridification of human rights protection? Or is this a sign of a fundamental change in global structures? Can (and should) international law still play a significant role in furthering the values of human rights? Panelists: Prof. Pierre d’Argent (University of Louvain), Prof. Andrew Hurrell (University of Oxford), Prof. Paolo Palchetti (University of Macerata) Chair: Dr. Nina Reiners (University of Potsdam)
