Quel avenir pour les droits de l’homme au Royaume-Uni après le Brexit ?

Abstract

This paper aims at contributing to the assessment of the consequences of Brexit on the protection of human rights in the UK. Has Brexit affected British human rights and will the UK uphold its commitment to Europe’s human rights regime post-Brexit? After a brief presentation of the legal framework that protected UK human rights before Brexit, we will highlight the possible evolutions brought by Brexit in human rights protection. Lastly, we will focus on current sources of concern about the detrimental effects of Brexit in the field of human rights.
