Rethinking Derogations from Human Rights Treaties
American Journal of International Law ( IF 2.7 ) Pub Date : 2021-01-15 , DOI: 10.1017/ajil.2020.92
Laurence R. Helfer

Numerous governments have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by declaring states of emergency and restricting individual liberties protected by international law. However, many more states have adopted emergency measures than have formally derogated from human rights conventions. This Editorial Comment critically evaluates the existing system of human rights treaty derogations. It analyzes the system's problems, identifies recent developments that have exacerbated these problems, and proposes a range of reforms in five areas—embeddedness, engagement, information, timing, and scope.

重新思考对人权条约的克减

许多政府通过宣布进入紧急状态和限制受国际法保护的个人自由来应对 COVID-19 大流行。然而,采取紧急措施的国家比正式克减人权公约的国家多得多。这篇社论评论批判性地评估了现有的人权条约减损制度。它分析了系统的问题,确定了加剧这些问题的最新发展,并提出了五个领域的一系列改革——嵌入、参与、信息、时机和范围。
