This chapter discusses the conditions required for the jurisdiction of international human rights bodies. It covers territorial, personal, temporal, and material jurisdiction, providing an overview of how these conditions are applied and interpreted in international human rights litigation. The chapter examines the challenges in establishing jurisdiction, the principles governing jurisdictional determinations, and the implications for the enforcement of human rights norms. It also highlights the role of jurisdictional conditions in ensuring access to justice and accountability for human rights violations.
The chapter considers the jurisdictional aspects of the right to life looking at the geographical, material, personal, and temporal aspects. The universal application of the jus cogens content of the right to life is affirmed alongside consideration of jurisdictional issues under regional human rights treaties.
