Over four decades, Indigenous Sámi individuals and communities have submitted to United Nations human rights treaty bodies, including the Human Rights Committee, several complaints in respect of the three Nordic countries Finland, Norway, and Sweden.

The Italian Constitutional Court’s Judgment 238 of 2014 Is Not Another Kadi Case
This article provides a critical view of Judgment No. 238 of 2014 handed down by the Italian Constitutional Court.

The following comments are based on a postulate that law is pluralist in its structure. La…

Evolution or Revolution? – Extrapolating from the Experience of the Human Rights Committee
Cultural Human Rights
What is the relationship between culture and human rights? Can the idea of cultural rights, which are predicated on the distinctiveness and exclusivity of a community’s beliefs and traditions, be compatible with the concept of human rights, which are universal and ‘inherent’ to all human beings? If we accept such compatibility, what is the actual content of cultural rights? Who are their beneficiaries: individuals, or peoples or groups as collect…
