Abstract

Međuamerički sustav za ljudska prava čine dvije institucije – Međuamerička komisija za ljudska prava i Međuamerički sud za ljudska prava – čije je djelovanje i utjecaj utvrđen temeljnim dokumentima. Iako je Komisija tijelo svih članica Organizacije američkih država, njezine su ovlasti ograničene u odnosu na ovlasti Suda. Ovaj rad nastoji, na temelju studije slučaja migrantskih politika američkog predsjednika Donalda Trumpa, dati odgovor na pitanje uloge Međuameričkog sustava za ljudska prava kao zaštitnika marginaliziranih skupina u zemljama koje nisu potpisnice Američke konvencije o ljudskim pravima. Trumpov se mandat pokazao posebno izazovnim za Međuamerički sustav za ljudska prava i odnose među državama članicama OAS-a zbog ksenofobne retorike i odlučnih antimigrantskih politika njegove administracije, a praksa SAD-a u odnosu prema tijelima međunarodne zajednice primorala je Međuameričku komisiju za ljudska prava na razvoj novih instrumenata i donošenje novih mjera u pokušaju poništavanja učinaka Trumpove politike.

Abstract (english)

The Inter-American System of Human Rights is made up of two institutions – The Inter-American Commission of Human Rights and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and the Commission - whose activity and influence are determined by its core documents. Although the Commission is a body of all nation-members of the Organization of American States, its authority is limited in comparison to those of the Court. This paper attempts to, based on the case study of migration policies of the U.S. President Donald Trump, give an answer to the question of the role of the Inter-American System of Human Rights as a guardian of marginalized groups in countries which are not signatories of the American Convention on Human Rights. Trump's presidency has proven to be especially challenging for the Inter-American System of Human Rights and international relation between members of the OAS because of its xenophobic rhetoric and anti-immigration policies, with the U.S. relations towards international institutions forcing the Commission to develop new instruments and measures in the attempt to annul Trump's policy.
