• Sommario/riassunto: This book explores the role and necessity of judicial review by the European Court of Human Rights in the context of European democratic governance. It examines the criticism faced by the Court for intervening in national democratic processes and provides a detailed analysis of the nature of rights-based judicial review. It contrasts the republican preference for weak judicial review with the liberal advocacy for strong review, ultimately positioning the Strasbourg Court's approach as a weakened form of strong judicial review. The book also discusses the evolving role of the Court amidst Europe's changing political landscape, emphasizing the importance of a strengthened European consensus on Convention rights. The intended audience includes legal scholars, policymakers, and those interested in European law and human rights.
