From 2005 to 2008 the Institute has been conducting a comprehensive project on human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The project's aim was to promote human rights as a central part of the dialogue in which the European Union and Iran have been engaged since 2002.

This publication is one of the outputs of that project, designed as a practical guide and reference book for foreign jurists and human rights defenders. It deals with Iran's legal system and its internal safeguards for human rights. This book covers the political structure of Iran; the history of the judiciary in Iran; the sources and nature of Iranian law; and the internal safeguards for fundamental freedoms and rights.
