Biography
Dimitris Xenos is a Lecturer at the University of East London. He also acts as a legal consultant on issues of human rights law.
'Dr Xenos’s study makes a major contribution, not only to the debate about positive obligations, but also to our understanding of the relationship between civil and political rights, on the one hand, and social and economic rights on the other, and to how the European Convention on Human Rights can and ought to be interpreted.' Steven Greer, Professor of Human Rights, University of Bristol
'The book provides an interesting, well-substantiated and welcome contribution to the scientific debate about the role and the law of the ECHR' Janneke Gerards, Professor of Fundamental Rights Law, Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen, published in Tijdschrift voor Constitutioneel Recht (Jan 2012)
