THE FOCUS IS ON PARTICULAR AND SPECIALIZED METHODS OF ENFORCEMENT THAT HAVE EVOLVED EITHER WITHIN THE COURTS OR THROUGH ADMINISTRATIVE OR INSPECTION TYPE AGENCIES TO ASSURE THAT OBLIGATIONS ARE BEING MET AND THAT A FORUM EXISTS TO CONSIDER COMPLAINTS AND ALLEGATIONS OF VIOLATION OF SUCH GUARANTEES AS HAVE BEEN ENACTED. AN ANALYSIS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AND QUASI-ADMINISTRATIVE INSTITUTIONS REVEALS THE ESTABLISHMENT OF INSTITUTIONS SUCH AS THE SCANDINAVIAN OMBUDSMAN AND THE SOCIALIST PROCURATOR WHICH ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR INSURING ADMINISTRATIVE OBSERVANCE OF HUMAN RIGHTS. THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION AND THE INTER-AMERICAN COMMISSION ON HUMAN RIGHTS ARE CITED AS REGIONAL CONVENTIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN EFFECTIVE IN INFLUENCING LEGAL DECISIONS IN THE AREA OF PRISONERS' RIGHTS. THE JUDICIAL REMEDIES EXAMINED ARE THE INMATE-PRISON LITIGATION IN THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL COURTS AND THE CREATION OF FRENCH AND ITALIAN SUPERVISING JUDGES TO SUPERVISE PRISON SENTENCES AND CONTROL THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THEY ARE SERVED. A LIST OF SOURCES IS PROVIDED. A PRELIMINARY DRAFT OF THIS REPORT IS AVAILABLE AS NCJ-16772.
