GONZALEZ-SALZBERG, Damián A. THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INTER-AMERICAN HUMAN RIGHTS SYSTEM: A STUDY OF THE AMERICAN STATES' COMPLIANCE WITH THE JUDGMENTS OF THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS. Int. Law: Rev. Colomb. Derecho Int. [online]. 2010, n.16, pp.115-142. ISSN 1692-8156.

The paper undertakes a comprehensive quantitative research on the subject of American States' compliance with international judgments on human rights' issues. The research analyses the level of effectiveness of the Inter-American Human Rights System, showing that the data annually published by the Inter-American Court in its Reports might not be the only way of understanding the actual degree of effectiveness of the system. Furthermore, some ideas are evaluated regarding possible paths in order to improve the current situation.
