This article aims to analyze the individual measures in the context of executing the European Court of Human Rights judgments, with particular emphasis on those that have shown the potential to promote legal reforms, as a result of the identification of structural problems in national legislation and practice. The article illustrates that the transformative impact of the ECtHR jurisprudence is not limited to decisions that suggest general measures, but also extends to those cases where individual measures are determined. Within this analysis, only those decisions of the Court that are considered illustrative and significant for the purposes of the study will be brought to attention, especially those that clearly reflect an impact in the national legal order by identifying and addressing structural problems. The selection of these decisions seeks to reflect the transformative role, without claiming an exhaustive treatment of all the relevant jurisprudence. The article focuses on the positive obligations of Albanian state and national implementation mechanisms assessing the extent to which the compliance with ECtHR’s judgments has contributed to the legislative amendments. It concludes that effective execution triggers broader judicial reform.
