1. JURIDICIAL REVOLUTION; from state parties to involvement of individual as subject of international human rights law. NON DISCRIMINATION, PUBLIC SHAMING.

2. ADVOCACY REVOLUTION, reinforcing UN role thru: rapporteurs, human rights council, etc and the new role of NGO: HRW, AMnesty International,and local NGOs...

3. Enforcement revolution: enforcement by establishing rapporteurs, regular report of state parties, ability to punish individual violators, and political powers of UN..etc
