Hi

I have to write an essay on the following question. Could you please tell me how I should go about doing this? What should the structure be, and what is meant by 'with reference to its jurisprudence'? I am a non law student and this is an elective for me so I'm having alot of problems with understanding some of the terminology.

The Question:
With reference to its jurisprudence under Articles 1, 7 and 27, International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966), outline the proper role of the Human Rights Committee in the system of global governance.

Thankyou for your time.

Greetings!

I can understand your confusion, if law is not your area! Fortunately, it's one of mine, or I'd be confused, too! "Jurisprudence" can be used to refer to the philosophy of law, a system of laws, or to decisions of courts, and particularly of reviewing tribunals. In this case, what the question is asking you to do is to read Articles 1, 7, and 27, and figure out what the Human Rights Committee's job is. What can it do? What must it do? Where does it get its authority (if it says); are there limits on what role it can perform? Does it have enforcement authority? In other words, if it sees human rights violations, what can it do about them?

I hope this helps! I'd be happy to help you with editing after you have a rough draft. :-)

Thanks,
