The book examines the dialectical relationship between the European Court of Human Rights and national courts, focusing on the ways in which the Court's decisions influence national legal traditions and procedures.

Interactions, challenges, and opportunities for cooperation arising from the application of European rules and formal procedures at the national level are analyzed, highlighting the importance of harmonizing human rights on a European scale.

The work is addressed to lawyers, researchers, and students interested in human rights, international law, and legal theory.
