This research seeks to analyze how the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and the European Court of Human Rights interpret their respective treaties and apply them in concrete cases. The specific focus is when Courts deal with issues concerning minorities (e.g., gender minorities, religious minorities, indigenous peoples), when there is no consensus on interpretation, and when the issue before the court does not have a clear answer in the treaty.
This research follows a legal analysis of case laws, doctrine, and jurisprudential discussions on treaty application and interpretation.
