In March 2022, following the invasion of Ukraine, Russia was expelled from the Council of Europe after 26 years as a member.

This timely and in-depth analysis explores Russia's tumultuous relationship with the Council of Europe and European Court of Human Rights. It examines Russia's membership record and the profound impacts of its expulsion for Europe's human rights system. The authors provide valuable insights for future policy to safeguard the integrity of international human rights institutions.

The book fills an important gap in legal scholarship by exploring the legality and legitimacy of Russia's membership and expulsion, and represents a key reference in understanding the challenge of protecting human rights in the face of rising authoritarianism.
