Abstract
type:text
Common law countries have been applying their traditional dualist orientation to treaties. But recently, Common law judges are beginning to utilize human rights treaties for interpreting Constitution. They are entrenching international treaty obligations into domestic law. This trend is called creeping monism. The interpretive techniques that courts utilize in incorporating human rights treaties into their work are five types: the use of treaties to gild the domestic lily, to develop a rights-conscious Charming Betsy canon for statutory interpretation, to update the common law, to engage in contextual constitutional interpretation and to develop a constitutional Charming Betsy canon. Among common law countries, judges are beginning to utilize incorporated treaties as the sources of constitutional interpretation. This paper aims to examine the cases how common law judges are using incorporated human rights treaties as constitutional interpretation
