Abstract

Abstract At present, both domestic and international law are increasingly starting to recognize corporations, other private non-natural persons and even public legal entities as subjects of human rights. A significant question of the study is whether such private or public legal entities can find any direct protection under the Inter-American Human Rights System, and if so, on what conditions. In this regard, the study analyzes the advisory opinion of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights OC-22/16, adopted on 26 February 2016. The study also focuses on international standards concerning the rights of legal entities to seek protection in universal and regional human rights systems. The main method used in the study is a formal analytical model. Beyond the analysis of the advisory opinion, the study focuses on basics regulations of European, African and United Nations human rights systems.
