Stand of the Council of Europe on the capital punishment in states with the observer status
Burešová, Jana ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Knotková, Vladimíra (referee)
Death penalty issues are a much discussed topic. Even though many states have abolished the capital punishment, there still constantly reappear tendencies to its restoration. On the other hand the states, which have not revoked executions, are not about to change their stance. The strongest international opponent of death penalty is clearly the Council of Europe. This Bachelor thesis follows the development of the move to abolish the capital punishment and the current situation in Japan, which has been granted the observer status with the Council. The paper also researches when and how the Council of Europe joined this process and the enforceability of its regulations in relation to Japan. The modified spiral model of human rights change is used to analyse the situation.
