Summary/Abstract: The study looks at the effectiveness of human rights protection in Serbia from the perspective of the right to a court and to an effective remedy in the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights. The first decisions of the Court against Serbia revealed weaknesses in the articulation and protection of the fundamental rights guaranteed under the Convention. One of the chief causes of these weaknesses is the absence of legal means and regulations capable of yielding the desired judicial effects. Another issue is related to the relationship between the courts and other state authorities. The omission of judicial reform in the current Normative Reform Strategy, 2008-2012, may be considered a serious drawback of said Strategy.
