The Influence of the Case Law of the European Court of Human Rights on the Military Justice System of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Vol.29,No.3(2021)

Abstract
The article discusses the influence of the European Court of Human Rights on the UK military justice and its development. It describes the historical and current system of military justice in Great Britain. It compares both systems and investigates how do they differ from each other. It then examines whether the European Court of Human Rights can be considered to be the initiator of the identified changes. The article analyses for this purpose the relevant case law of the ECtHR, but also addresses other possible reasons for these changes.
