註釋This book guides civil rights lawyers-and informs judges, legislators, and academics-in the effective use of international law in U.S. federal and state cases.
The author highlights many concrete areas in which international law can enhance human rights protection both in the U.S. and abroad, such as:


Death penalty
Lethal force by police and military authorities
Extraterritorial privacy protection
Gay and lesbian rights
Government liability for foreseeable harm
Compensation for unintentional false imprisonment.
This eminently practical approach-based on model briefs developed for and used by leading U.S. civil rights lawyers and organizations-presents an extremely rare treatment of international human rights law.
