conflits en amont
français vers anglais
Droit / Brevets
Droit (général)
Le législateur démine parfois certains conflits en amont, mais, à l’évidence, c’est au juge qu’il revient très souvent de se prononcer quand le droit à l’égalité s’oppose à un autre droit fondamental.
Does anybody know what is meant by "en amont" here please?
Does it mean " before the conflict escalates"?
Many thanks
