BERTONI, Eduardo. The Inter-American System of Human Rights - (IASHR) - and the (real?) lack of regional support. Iuris Dictio [online]. 2017, n.20, pp.87-104. ISSN 2528-7834.  https://doi.org/10.18272/iu.v20i20.906.

In 2008, the professor Gerald Neuman published an article that generated debate not only on the relevance of the Inter-American System of Human Righst (IASHR), but also its legitimacy in the región. After almost 10 years after publishing this article, this work will review one of the pillars that allowed Professor Neuman to build his arguments and which many others have mentioned: the very low compliance with decisions made by the Court and their relationship with the notion of “efficiency” or “legitimacy” of the regional Tribunal and with its mechanism of interpreting the Convention. The work concludes with the necessity of exploring regional consensus of the scope and concept of the rights involved in decisions as a mechanism of interpretation of the treaty.

Palabras clave : Inter-American Court of Human Rights; Efficiency and Legitimacy of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights; Interpretation of the Inter-American Human Rights Convention; Gerald Neuman / Jurisprudence of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.
