The Intra-territorial Presumption of Jurisdiction Sample Clauses

The Intra-territorial Presumption of Jurisdiction at the ECtHR The system of European human rights protection has similarly been faced with the question of what (if anything) states are required to do to comply with their positive obligations in areas within their territory but beyond their control. As shown below, the human rights bodies’ response has shifted over time. in the early 1990s, the European Commission on Human Rights (ECommHR) declined to entertain the possibility that a state may be able to violate its positive obligations in respect of uncontrolled sovereign territory. The ECtHR, however, decided to take a different approach in a string of cases starting with Ilaşcu in 2004, holding that states are obliged to use the means that are still available to them to – in the words of Article 1 ECHR – ‘secure to everyone within their jurisdiction the rights and free- doms’ of the Convention.
