Dilek Kurban, "Limits of Supranational Justice: The European Court of Human Rights and Turkey's Kurdish Conflict" (Cambridge UP, 2020)
Dilek Kurban\u2019s\xa0Limits of Supranational Justice: The European Court of Human Rights and Turkey's Kurdish Conflict\xa0(Cambridge UP, 2020)\xa0considers the European Court of Human Rights\u2019 (ECtHR) engagement with Turkey\u2019s ongoing Kurdish conflict. Tracing the legal mobilization of Kurdish people alongside legal and political histories, Kurban\u2019s work highlights the factors enabling ongoing violence in the Kurdish region. As Kurban argues, considering the effectiveness of supranational courts, like the ECtHR, in cases like that of Turkey invokes difficult questions about international human rights regimes. Limits of Supranational Justice contributes to studies of supranational courts and legal mobilization\u2014as well as broader conversations about human rights\u2014by pointing to new avenues of sociolegal inquiry alongside the broader sociohistoral context in the case of Turkey.\nRine Vieth\xa0is a PhD candidate in Anthropology at McGill University, where they research the how UK asylum tribunals consider claims of belief.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
