“…51 This compromise was necessary to make decisions binding and enforced, since the Court was made optional, 52 but 'the downside, of course, was that final decision would be left to a political body'. 53 When the draft convention was passed back to the Committee of Ministers, Undén insisted the Committee should be authorised only to decide on whether a state had violated the convention, not to dictate to a defaulting state to take measures or pay damages to the injured party. 54 The right of individual petition proved to be a final disputatious subject: 55 voicing fears that it might be abused by subversive forces, some delegates opposed including an automatic petition right; eventually, the Committee agreed to make individual petition optional, too.…”

This article seeks to account for Sweden's evolving commitment to the international human rights (HR) regime since its inception in the late 1940s. Where previous research has explained Nordic HR exceptionalism in terms of values of solidarity and democracy in domestic society, this article instead develops a rationalist framework focusing on how governments assess the sovereignty costs states incur through their international HR commitmentscosts which may increase as the international regime accretes authority and domestic groups gain opportunities for mobilising for compliance. Empirically, the article adopts a longitudinal approach to determine how Swedish governments have committed to international human rights norms in three historical episodes: the emergence of the European Convention on Human Rights; the era of international activism from the 1960s, and the domestication of international human rights law since the 1980s.
