THE RIGHT TO A FAIR TRIAL AND ITS GUARANTIES IN THE STATE OF LAW
THE RIGHT TO A FAIR TRIAL AND ITS GUARANTIES IN THE STATE OF LAW

Summary/Abstract: The European Convention of Human Rights was the first instrument of international law which organized the defense of humans, ensuring their rights and freedoms, even before their own state. This Convention is the first instrument of a paramount importance and, meanwhile, the first international treaty to bring a collective guarantee for respecting the human rights, on the side of the European Union’s member states. Once the European Convention of Human Rights was adopted, both a legal regime and a protection system of legal action were created. Thus, The European Convention of Human Rights is an original institutional mechanism of protection that, besides defining the human rights and its fundamental freedoms, obliges the member states to also ensure them. Therefore, the right to a fair trial represents a guarantee of respecting the human rights.
