The Max Planck Yearbook of United Nations Law (UNYB), founded in 1997, appears under the auspices of the Max Planck Foundation for International Peace and the Rule of Law. Volume 25 of the UNYB is a special anniversary edition that features contributions which look back on the key developments in the United Nations’ activities in the field of international law since 1997. By concentrating on issues connected with the UN and its initiatives, the UNYB aims to facilitate an understanding of the changes the UN has been undergoing since its foundation. It also provides a forum in which the potential of international organisations to affect the future course of international law and relations can be examined and assessed. Articles featured in the UNYB either relate to ‘The Law and Practice of the United Nations’ or ‘Legal Issues Related to the Goals of the United Nations’. The UNYB addresses both scholars and practitioners, giving them insights into the workings, challenges and evolution of the UN.

A Commentary
Editor:
The adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) on 10 December 1948 by the United Nations General Assembly marked a groundbreaking moment in the field of international law. Not only would it start to move away from its original conception as an exclusively State-centered domain: it would also mark the progressive transformation of international into a law for humankind. This instrument started a codification and institution-building process that would slowly evolve into a complex framework of treaties, bodies and procedures revolving around the protection of the human being against the actions – or omissions – of the State. This commentary provides a specific analysis and reflection of how each one of the rights enshrined therein have evolved over time.

The European Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment entered into force in February 1989 and all 47 member States are Parties to the Convention. It has already established itself as an important human rights instrument. Its approach is quite different from that of the European Convention on Human Rights. Whereas the ECHR provides a remedy for particular human rights violations after the event, the Convention for the Prevention of Torture seeks to prevent human rights violations, through a system of visits to places of detention. The Convention is intended to be an integrated part of the Council of Europe system for the protection of human rights, placing a proactive non-judicial mechanism alongside the reactive judicial mechanism established under the ECHR.
The Yearbook of the European Convention for the Prevention of Torture offers an essential annual overview, in English and French, of developments in relation to the Convention for the Prevention of Torture. It contains information on ratifications in the authentic English and French texts, details of the membership and activities of the Convention, as well as the annual General Report and reports to States and the State responses thereto. The ECPT's reports are published in the official English and/or French texts and State responses in the English and/or French versions submitted by the States concerned.
Volumes of the Yearbook of the European Convention for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment are also available as E-Book.
