Once and for all it had become clear that the protection of human rights could not be regarded as any nation´s internal affairs. In Europe, Nazi-Germany served as a deterring case how a national regime could impose progressively worse treatments (from discriminations to genocide) on certain minorities, if no outside control provided an ultimate safeguard.The aim of the international law treaties signed inside Europe after WWII was to provide exactly such a safeguard and to integrate defeating and defeated countries into binding cooperation. One such cooperation took the form of the European Communities (most prominently the EC), another one the form of the Council of Europe (the organization drafting and controlling the European Convention on Human Rights (henceforth: convention)). In this paper using the issue of deportation of aliens I want to provide an overview on the position of a typical European country like Austria in regard to the obligation derived from the convention institution´s case law. %K European, Convention, Human, Rights, Case, Relation, Deportation, Aliens, International %G English
