Abstract

The European Court of Human Rights has increasingly relied on the margin of appreciation as a tool for interpreting the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The article describes the history and development of this doctrine. It then illustrates why the doctrine endangers the rule of law - and to some degree the protection of human rights - in Europe.
