| Abstract | The African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights (African Court), together with the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (African Commission), make up the African system for the protection of human rights. It is within this framework that the African Court exercises its advisory and contentious jurisdictions in respect of State parties. The Court may receive applications from the African Commission, individuals and non-governmental organisations against States that have accepted its jurisdiction. The Court’s implementation of its missions reveals an ambivalence in the interpretation of African human rights law. This ambivalence is characterised by, on the one hand, the development of a relatively original jurisprudence which highlights not only the constitutionalisation and socialisation, but also the humanisation and moralisation of African law and, on the other hand, in view of the burgeoning nature of African human rights law, by shedding light on that law, which is considered as the regional relay of universalism of human rights law, in its procedural and material dimensions.
