How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The scientific article presents a study of the practice of constitutional enshrinement of the right to appeal to international human rights bodies in a number of states, the development of this constitutional norm within domestic law, and the interaction of states with international human rights bodies. The study includes a comparative analysis of the implementation practices of decisions made by international human rights bodies in states where the right to appeal to these bodies is constitutionally enshrined and those where it is not. Based on the analysis, a conclusion is drawn about the effectiveness of constitutional enshrinement of the right to appeal to international human rights bodies as a political and legal guarantee that ensures the consideration and implementation of decisions made by these bodies. The article also examines theoretical and practical aspects of the implementation of the right to appeal to international human rights bodies. Additional patterns arising from the constitutional enshrinement of this right have been identified. In conclusion, the article formulates the main finding of the study, which states that the constitutional enshrinement of the right to appeal to international human rights bodies reflects the political stance of a state genuinely committed to ensuring and protecting human rights within its territory. Furthermore, it has been revealed that this approach enhances the realization of the right, particularly through raising citizens’ awareness and improving the state’s regulatory framework.
