Human Rights – Children’s Rights

Although the book series is essentially law-focused, it also allows for an interdisciplinary approach, and therefore also includes contributions from other disciplines. The main areas of law covered in the book series are human rights, children’s rights and the rule of law, as well as other areas of law that are designed to ensure that these are effectively implemented. A prominent feature of the book series is the examination of the legal systems and jurisprudence of mainly, but not exclusively, Central and Eastern European countries. Given that the book series is intended to provide useful knowledge of the law for non-lawyers, it also provides the general legal knowledge needed to understand the subject. The book series is divided into two distinctive sub-series, with the books in each sub-series being numbered separately. One sub-series is entitled ‘Human Rights and Rule of Law’ (HRRL) and the other ‘International and Comparative Children’s Rights’ (ICCR). In relation to the relationship between the two sub-series, HRRL is considered the more general sub-series and ICCR the more specific sub-series.
