Fundamental rights have not only gained an ever-increasing impact in the framework of international and regional human rights conventions, but also in the national legal orders of European and American societies.

This unique collection constitutes the first systematic presentation of fundamental rights in the case law and doctrine of countries of Western, Middle, and Eastern Europe, and the United States (North America). Special attention is paid to the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights (Strasbourg) and the European Court of Justice (Luxembourg).

This ground-breaking collection offers a comprehensive, comparative legal overview of the general doctrine of fundamental rights, as well as a detailed analysis of specific fundamental rights, including:

- civil liberties
- economic and social rights
- non-discrimination and justiceable rights (due process)

Furthermore, it clarifies the mutual impact of constitutional case law. The aim of the project is to create a well-structured set of material on human rights in order to promote a ius commune europaeum, and encourage the use of a comparative approach in judicial review by both judges and lawyers in human rights cases before national and European courts.
