Belyaev, S.A. Some issues on development of international legal counteraction to discrimination.

Abstract: This article by S.A. Belyaev is devoted to the study of the non-discrimination principle in the international law. As the author points out, while this principle forms the basis for protection of human rights, it is not sufficiently studied as an institute of common international law, while being widely applied. This article contains analysis of codifications of the non-discrimination principle,its universal and regional sources, its definition, classification of its subjects and objects. The author also studies various mechanisms of practical, consultational, mediatory, quasi-judicial and judicial measures, which are aimed to apply the provisions of international law and to prevent or punish discrimination.
