Summary/Abstract: Human rights standards are constantly evolving. At international level, the trend is for human rights to expand more rapidly than at national level. For this reason, the transposition of European standards and recommendations is not perfectly aligned and standards of protection continue to differ from one Member State to another. The situation is all the more worrying when we consider the rights of persons deprived of their liberty. Analysing the latest developments in the field of protection of persons under criminal sanctions, we can identify the contrast between the degree of compliance with standards in the safeguarding of human rights in Romania and the ones imposed at European level.
