THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN REGIONAL COURTS AND THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE IN TERMS OF JURISDICTION
Abstract
This article explores the complex and evolving relationship between regional courts and the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in terms of jurisdiction. It examines how regional courts, such as the European Court of Human Rights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, interact with the ICJ in cases where their jurisdiction overlaps or conflicts. The article also analyzes the impact of these interactions on the development of international law and the protection of human rights. By examining specific case studies and legal principles, this article sheds light on the challenges and opportunities presented by the relationship between regional courts and the ICJ.
