Resumen
SAAVEDRA ALVAREZ, Yuria. El sistema africano de derechos humanos y de los pueblos. Prolegómenos. Anu. Mex. Der. Inter [online]. 2008, vol.8, pp.671-712. ISSN 1870-4654.
The African Human and Peoples ' Rights System is mostly based on the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights, a unique document that embraces together individual and collective rights and individual duties, among other novelties, and foresees an African Commission as an organ that exercises a complete continental supervision. Recently, an additional Protocol to the Charter establishing an African Court has entered into force. However, despite its many innovations, features and criticism, above all in terms of the rights recognized, its guarantees, institutions and the twenty years system's practice, it has not generated much interest in the Latin-American academic discourse as in other regions of the world. This article constitutes a brief introduction to the topic aimed at establishing a first basis ofstudy for those interested in the international human rights law.
