Developing the full range of state obligations and integrating intersectionality in a case of involuntary sterilization : CEDAW Committee, 4/2004, AS v Hungary

In rewriting the CEDAW Committee's view in ASv Hungary, the author has chosen to enrich these views with relevant elements that were collected among the resources of the broader international human rights protection system. Most of these sources are posterior to the views in AS v Hungary. It should be clear that this exercise is in no way intended to criticize the CEDAW Committee for doing a poor job.
