Abstract:

Given the intersection of "righting sports", "sporting rights", and "exporting European law" developments, CAS could become a place where Sport Governing Bodies' (SGBs) commitments and obligations regarding human rights could be enforced. This prospect raises many unanswered questions regarding CAS’ capacity to manage human rights arguments.25 Hence, the actual interaction of CAS with human rights law and the ECtHR with CAS must be constantly scrutinized. This Article explores in particular whether CAS consistently applies universal human rights standards.
