There is an internal conflict inherent in regional systems for protection of human rights. They are created by states. net, they accuse, condemn, restrain, and compel their creators. The more the systems succeed, the more their creators are tempted to resist. In some cases the tension is resolved at the outset: Regional organizations weighed down by repressive states establish human rights too weak to provoke much resistance.
