Subsidiariedad y reparación sobreviniente: Una propuesta alternativa para el sistema interamericano de derechos humanos

There are occasions when States remedy human rights violations while their cases are being processed by both the Inter-American Commission and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. In this situation, both institutions use to continue with the proceedings until the very end of them. This work proposes to change this approach. In effect, the authors suggest that, under those circumstances, both the Commission and the Court should conclude the proceedings. This because -according to the principle of subsidiarity-, the intervention of regional institutions only is justified to the extent that States do not provide an adequate remedy to the victims.
