APPLICABILITY OF THE VIENNA CONVENTION RESERVATIONS REGIME TO HUMAN RIGHTS TREATIES

Summary/Abstract: International law is facing global unremitting challenges, which are constantly increasing in both scope and content, especially in the context of rising security problems. Universal values:human rights and freedoms are first to be undermined. In such circumstances, states resort to different ways of "relieve" themselves from the imposed obligations by imposing reservations. However, the reservations regime established by the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969) is pretty clear. The problems arisein the course of its interpretation and enforcement. The debate on applicability of the reservations regime in the field of human rights treaties has not been exhausted yet. This papers aimed at examining these challenges in an attempt to find answers to these global issues by analyzing the theoretical approaches to the problem and practice of eminent institutions in the area.
