"The American Convention on Human Rights, adopted within the framework of the Organization of American States, is the central and essential instrument of the inter-American human rights law as elaborated by the Inter-American Commission and Court of Human Rights. This treaty, adopted on November 22, 1969, with now 23 States Parties, contains 82 articles that set out the rights and freedoms that States undertake to respect and protect, and establishes various protection mechanisms, including an individual complaints mechanism. This book offers a critical, systematic and exegetical commentary of the 82 Articles of this Convention, reflecting on the construction, often creative and avant-garde, of the inter-American human rights bodies. Doctrinal, critical and jurisprudential, this book is the fruit of reflections and research carried out by the two authors, and of a symbiotic writing. The American Convention on Human Rights is much more than just a treaty of international law. The Convention is a complex instrument, which was born in a particular context, and which reflects the inter-American human rights particularism. Of course, it is a political instrument, which was thought in the difficult context of the revolutionary fever of the late 1950s. But it is also, and above all, an instrument of progress and justice that is in line with the current of humanist thought of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the projects for the emancipation of the humankind. It is also a formidable legal instrument with exceptional normative power and potential. This treaty, as interpreted and applied by the Inter-American Commission and Court of Human Rights, has become the founding norm of a creative, sophisticated and protective inter-American legal regime for the protection of human rights, thanks to audacious and intelligent hermeneutic work, led in particular by the Inter-American Court. The persuasive force of inter-American jurisprudence attests to its argumentative quality. This Inter-American human rights law, if it embodies the hope of access to justice for some, to truth for others, or to the protection of the most vulnerable, is also, for the internationalist lawyer, a paradigm of reference for what is and what must be public international law centered on humanist and progressive values"--

The first edition of The American Convention on Human Rights showed the hesitant steps of a court trying to find its way in a region plagued by egregious human rights violations, the absence of democracy and a significant disregard of international human rights norms. The second edition followed this up by introducing an analysis of the advancement in the reasoning of the Court regarding the violations that it had been dealing with since its inception. This, now co-authored, third edition contains an updated and in-depth analysis of the norms applied by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights to deal with the most frequent human rights violations that still occur in Latin America regarding life, humane treatment, personal liberty, due process, access to justice, the principle of legality and judicial protection. The second edition contained a chapter on disappearances, as the Court at the time had significantly developed its reasoning on the matter; this third edition shows the latest evolution on the subject, which still plagues the region. In addition, a new chapter examines discrimination, an issue that has emerged as a frequent and important concern in the Court’s work. This edition also reflects the dynamic development of the Court’s work in recent years, which has evolved to a more refined jurisprudence covering more specific aspects of the rights examined and topics not previously addressed. These include, inter alia, the justiciability of social, economic, cultural and environmental rights; the recognition of collective rights holders and State responsibility for gender-based torture committed by private actors. These advances are the result of considerable progress in the democratization and embrace of human rights in the countries under the Court’s jurisdiction.

L'étude comparée de la jurisprudence des Cours européenne et interaméricaine des droits de l'homme en matière d'interprétation conventionnelle, comprise comme le processus, la recherche du sens à donner aux Conventions (et non son résultat) fait ressortir deux choses. Elle démontre tout d'abord l'inexistence d'une herméneutique commune. Si les Cours s'appuient sur la particularité des deux Conventions au regard du droit international général pour légitimer l'élaboration d'une démarche herméneutique spécifique, il existe de véritables différences méthodologiques entre elles. Elle révèle ensuite un mouvement de rapprochement des solutions jurisprudentielles adoptées, dont le rythme peut être comparé à celui d'une valse à trois temps. Le premier est marqué par le développement de l'herméneutique européenne ; le deuxième consiste en la reprise de ce patrimoine interprétatif par la Cour interaméricaine, qui l'adapte néanmoins à ses spécificités ; le troisième, enfin, consiste en une convergence de la jurisprudence des deux Cours, qui est bien souvent davantage le fait de la Cour européenne que celui de la Cour interaméricaine. Cette valse s'inscrit, selon l'auteure, dans un phénomène de « syncrétisme interprétatif ». Les Cours élaborent et réadaptent continuellement leur démarche à partir de la « fusion » de différentes « doctrines » ou « éléments culturels » dont elles s'enrichissent réciproquement, sans pour autant remettre en cause leurs présupposés herméneutiques. Le syncrétisme, lui-même issu d'un double mouvement d'approfondissement de chaque système dans sa propre vision et d'ouverture sur d'autres, semble cependant s'inscrire dans une certaine recherche de l'universel.
