This volume supplements the current (in 2000) three volumes of ""A Systematic Guide to the Case-Law of the European Court of Human Rights"". It covers the years 1997 and 1998, and follows the same system as the previous volumes.
Thus this volume, together with Volumes I, II and III, offers a compilation of relevant passages of all the Court's judgments from 1960 up to and including 1998, arranged according to the Articles of the Convention and its Protocols.
The guide should enable its users to find all the rulings of the Court which may be relevant to a given problem, and reduce considerably the time and effort needed for research. It will continue to be updated at regular intervals.
