Abstract

Fragmentation of international law, which occurs in the competition of international dispute settlement bodies, is now becoming especially noticeable. A remarkable example of overcoming such contradictionsis found in the framework of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. Ways of overcoming the fragmentation of international law in the practice of international courts is possible by means of “integration of integrations” – improvement of legal norms, mutual respect by courts, and willingness to cooperate.
