Abstract
With respect to the commitment patterns of various political regimes, we pose the following research questions: Do political regimes differ in their commitment activity depending on the substance of the treaty (i.e. relating to different areas of human rights protection, different generations of human rights – political rights, social rights, rights of minorities, etc.)? Do certain regimes commit faster to influential human rights declarations than to specific treaties regulating a particular human right and its procedural aspects? Does the commitment behaviour of different political regimes change with the strength of treaty’s control mechanism (and the potential threat of sanctions for noncompliance)? We will make a comparison across time and geographical space, making it possible to assess whether democratic and non-democratic states have been similar in their commitment patterns or not. We will pay special attention to the category of transitional regimes, comparing the practice of post-communist democracies from early 90s with the practice of other democratizing regimes both in the same time period and in different historical contexts.
