Abstract
The “Protocol of Buenos Aires,” which revised the Charter of the Organization of American States, entered into force in 1970. It changed the legal status of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights in a number of important respects and strengthened the normative character of the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man. These are most significant developments, and yet they have gone largely unnoticed in the literature.Keywords
