Rights and wrongs under the ECHR: the prohibition of abuse of rights in Article 17 of the European Convention on Human Rights
In: School of Human Rights Research series volume 78
This study seeks to shed light on the prohibition of abuse of rights in Article 17 ECHR in order to contribute to a more coherent interpretation of this provision. To that aim it studies the abuse clause from different perspectives. First, it looks at the historical background of the provision to examine what motivated the drafters to include this prohibition. Then it moves on to the case law of the European Commission of Human Rights and the European Court of Human Rights and to legal doctrine, revealing the difficulties and inconsistencies in the current interpretation of the abuse clause. Next, it analyses the interpretation of prohibitions of abuse in other human rights documents to see whether parallels can be drawn with the interpretation of Article 17 ECHR. Subsequently, it addresses the concepts of "abuse of rights" and "militant democracy" and examines the extent to which they offer a framework for understanding the abuse clause. Based on the insights obtained from these different perspectives, this study puts forward a proposal as to how Article 17 ECHR can best be applied in the future

PVV en SP:ideologische tegenstanders met dezelfde voedingsbodem? ; PVV and SP: ideological adversaries, but the same breeding ground? :The effects of municipal factors on electoral support for a right-wing and a left-wing populist party across 403 Dutch municipalities in 2010
In: Veul , I , Flache , A & Venema , S 2016 , ' PVV en SP : ideologische tegenstanders met dezelfde voedingsbodem? ' , Mens en Maatschappij , vol. 91 , no. 1 , pp. 27-52 . https://doi.org/10.5117/MEM2016.1.VEUL ; ISSN:0025-9454
The right-wing PVV and the left-wing SP are seen as populist parties who are fierce ideological adversaries in the Dutch political spectrum. We study the similarities and differences in municipal contexts that explain their electoral success. Results of the 2010 national elections at the municipality level are analyzed for nearly all (N=403) Dutch municipalities. Hypotheses are formulated based on integrated group threat theory and relative deprivation theory. Results indicate similarities but also clear differences in the contexts in which SP and PVV thrive. PVV is more successful in municipalities with more immigrants and a higher average perception of unsafety, SP thrives more under local socioeconomic deprivation.

The increasing impact of human rights law on the financial world
In: Cahiers AEDBF/EVBFR-Belgium no. 28
"Finance and human rights may be an unusual combination for a book theme, considering the apparent distance between both worlds. But appearances are deceiving: human rights law does impact the financial world, albeit in an indirect way. Just think about governmental measures such as financial embargoes, the regulation of the vulture funds or the many privacy rules with which financial institutions have to cope in their daily activities. Financial institutions are also confronted with the societal changes and new priorities which drive them to undertake their business in a more human rights-compliant way. This book attempts to provide a synthesis of the growing impact of human rights law on the financial world."--Editors
