Summary
Taking stock of the reform process which led to the establishment of the Human Rights Council in replacement of the Commission on Human Rights and the subsequent institution-building process, Daniela Karrenstein depicts new avenues as well as limitations for the body whose establishment was inextricably connected with the hope for a new era in human rights protection by the United Nations.
