dc.description.abstractHuman rights have the pedigree of a distinguished struggle against oppression: everyone shall be treated with respect for their inherent dignity and human worth. The horrors of the Second World War provided the legal basis for the modern human rights law. The establishment of the United Nations (UN) signalled the beginning of an international concern for the protection of human rights. Human rights transnational institutions have developed human rights principles, some recognized as jus cogens norms. Nonetheless the application of human rights law in courts is almost always contested. The functions of international courts such as the International Court of Justice (ICJ) are dependant on the States volition and the settlement of disputes between them. Whenever asked by the UN organs and specialized agencies, international courts also give advisory opinions on contentious legal questions. The impact of international jurisprudence on contemporary international law is significant, assessing key areas of international law, such as law of the sea, international environment law and international human rights law. Note that, in this paper we focus on the particular impact of the advisory opinions on the human rights lawpt_PT
