"This collection , presents the results of interdisiplinary research
into monitoring to a wider scientfic forum. Several monitoring issues
are tackled , with particular emphasis on the reporting system: what
should be reported (the content of the reports) and who should report
(the more formal and procedural aspects of reporting?) Apart from
suitable monitoring mechanism, there is also the self executing force
of the Convention, making it directly enforceable in national courts.
Ongoing and dynamic monitoring can be a powerful impetus to making
systematic progress in this area. The debate on monitoring the
Children's Rights Convention may in this way expand into an
attractive and exemplary debate on human rights conventions in
general. This book will therefore not only meet the requirements of
all those working in the field of children's rights , but can also
provide appealing material for all those involved in the field of
monitoring human rights"
