Dickson considers the impact not only of the Convention within the conflict, but also of the conflict on the Convention...For anyone interested not only in Northern Ireland but also in the development of the Convention, these in-depth and meticulously researched chapters will be an important resource. (Dr Fiona de Londras, Newsletter for the Committee on the Administration of Justice )
The European Convention on Human Rights and the Conflict in Northern Ireland challenges the ECHR's role as the most lauded and respected of the human rights protection systems. In the very conditions where human rights are at their most vulnerable, Dickson argues that the ECHR has been largely irrelevant in vindicating rights...The ramifications of this conclusion go beyond Northern Ireland, becoming increasingly pertinent with the current struggle against Al-Qaeda...is therefore an impressive piece of work which shall demand attention from legal, political and historical scholars with an interest not only in Northern Ireland, but the international human rights movement as a whole (Alan Greene, The Irish Jurist )
