Complementary Pathways as “Genuine and Effective Access to Means of Legal Entry” in the Reasoning of the European Court of Human Rights
Författare
Summary, in English
Complementary pathways are often viewed as an entirely political matter. While
there is no legal obligation for states to introduce such, this article shows that their
presence or absence has a bearing on how the ECtHR assesses compliance with
the prohibition of collective expulsion of aliens. This concrete interaction between
complementary pathways and human rights law has been introduced through the
requirement of “genuine and effective access to means of legal entry” in the case law
of the ECtHR. This article clarifies this requirement and assesses its general signifi-
cance for the role of complementary pathways as a promotor of or a hindrance to
human rights protection.
