Book Judicial Convergence and Fragmentation in International Human Rights Law

Download or read book Judicial Convergence and Fragmentation in International Human Rights Law written by Elena Abrusci and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an innovative analysis of the complex issue of judicial convergence and fragmentation in international human rights law, moving the conversation forward from the assessment of the two phenomena and investigating their triggering factors. With a wide geographical focus that include the most up-to-date case-law from the three main regional systems (the African, European and Inter-American) and the UN Human Rights Committee, the book confirms the predominant judicial convergence across international human rights law. On this basis, the book engages with an interdisciplinary investigation into the legal and non-legal factors that could explain both convergence and fragmentation, ranging from the use of judicial dialogue and the notions of necessity and proportionality to the composition of the courts and the role of NGOs. The aim is to provide the tools to understand the dynamics between human rights adjudicatory bodies and possibly foresee future instances of judicial fragmentation.

Book Human Rights in Development  Volume 7

Download or read book Human Rights in Development Volume 7 written by George Ulrich and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present edition of the Human Rights in Development Yearbook is the thirteenth edition in this series. With this volume, the yearbook’s formal structure has shifted from that of a journal to a thematic anthology. The theme of this year’s volume is “Reparations: Redressing Past Wrongs”. The articles contained in the publication primarily stem from contributions prepared for a conference entitled “The Right to Compensation and Related Remedies for Racial Discrimination” that was hosted by the Danish Centre for Human Rights in April 2001. The conference was organised in anticipation of the World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, which was held in Durban in September 2001. The publication consists of 15 articles divided into four main parts addressing the subjects of “Reparations at the National and Regional Levels”, “Precedence and Standing of International Law”, “The Moral and Social Aspects of Reparation” and “Reflections”. Human Rights in Development is the result of a joint research project born out of longstanding co-operation between the following research institutes and centres for human rights: the Christian Michelsen Institute, Bergen; the Danish Centre for Human Rights, Copenhagen; the Icelandic Human Rights Centre, Reykjavik; the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights, Vienna; the International Centre for Human Rights and Democratic Development, Montreal; the Netherlands Institute of Human Rights, Utrecht; the Norwegian Institute of Human Rights, Oslo; the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law, Lund and Åbo Academy University, Åbo.

Book Transnational Chicanx Perspectives on Ana Castillo

Download or read book Transnational Chicanx Perspectives on Ana Castillo written by Bernadine Hernández and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than forty years, Chicana author Ana Castillo has produced novels, poems, and critical essays that forge connections between generations; challenge borders around race, gender, and sexuality; and critically engage transnational issues of space, identity, and belonging. Her contributions to Latinx cultural production and to Chicana feminist thought have transcended and contributed to feminist praxis, ethnic literature, and border studies throughout the Americas. Transnational Chicanx Perspectives on Ana Castillo is the first edited collection that focuses on Castillo’s oeuvre, which directly confronts what happens in response to cultural displacement, mixing, and border crossing. Divided into five sections, this collection thinks about Castillo’s poetics, language, and form, as well as thematic issues such as borders, immigration, gender, sexuality, and transnational feminism. From her first political poetry, Otro Canto, published in 1977, to her mainstream novels such as The Mixquiahuala Letters, So Far From God, and The Guardians, this collection aims to unravel how Castillo’s writing impacts people of color around the globe and works in solidarity with other third world feminisms.

Book Myths of Modernity

    Book Details:
  • Author : Elizabeth Dore
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2006-01-25
  • ISBN : 082238762X
  • Pages : 269 pages

Download or read book Myths of Modernity written by Elizabeth Dore and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-25 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Myths of Modernity, Elizabeth Dore rethinks Nicaragua’s transition to capitalism. Arguing against the idea that the country’s capitalist transformation was ushered in by the coffee boom that extended from 1870 to 1930, she maintains that coffee growing gave rise to systems of landowning and labor exploitation that impeded rather than promoted capitalist development. Dore places gender at the forefront of her analysis, which demonstrates that patriarchy was the organizing principle of the coffee economy’s debt-peonage system until the 1950s. She examines the gendered dynamics of daily life in Diriomo, a township in Nicaragua’s Granada region, tracing the history of the town’s Indian community from its inception in the colonial era to its demise in the early twentieth century. Dore seamlessly combines archival research, oral history, and an innovative theoretical approach that unites political economy with social history. She recovers the bygone voices of peons, planters, and local officials within documents such as labor contracts, court records, and official correspondence. She juxtaposes these historical perspectives with those of contemporary peasants, landowners, activists, and politicians who share memories passed down to the present. The reconceptualization of the coffee economy that Dore elaborates has far-reaching implications. The Sandinistas mistakenly believed, she contends, that Nicaraguan capitalism was mature and ripe for socialist revolution, and after their victory in 1979 that belief led them to alienate many peasants by ignoring their demands for land. Thus, the Sandinistas’ myths of modernity contributed to their downfall.

Book La Santa Cruzada de la Salvaci  N

Download or read book La Santa Cruzada de la Salvaci N written by El Pensador and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mi nombre es M.C.R. El Pensador, un servidor de Jesucristo y la Fe es mi apellido, porque todo aquel que inspira fe a través del mensaje de Dios, la gracia del cielo cubre sus pasos. En estos diversos temas, la fe de la oración es muy importante en nuestras vidas "hermanos", porque es lo que une el cielo a la tierra y la tierra al cielo en alianza entre el creador y lo creado. Es la unión universal del misterio de la vida, de la cual disfrutamos durante la peregrinación de la estadía de nuestra existencia. Dice el Maestro Jesucristo en la Revelación del Mensaje del Infinito que orar con fe da vida al alma en los llamados de auxilio al cielo. Inspirado por la fe y el deber a Dios, le doy las gracias por hacerme el regalo más preciado del mundo, que es ser un instrumento del Señor en los pasos de la salvación de las almas, que en paso de oscuridad, andan con el velo de la ceguera haciendo de una tierra santa, tierra de pecado en un mundo de fe ciega, que vaga en el festival de vestimenta de santidad en apariencia de vivir en gracia con Dios, mientras servimos a los amos de la tierra. Es por eso que orar no solo consiste en orar, si el mensaje a Dios es con alma vacía. ¡Así es mis hermanos! Hagamos de la oración un átomo de vida para que así sean escuchados nuestros ruegos. Hermanos de la fe, este libro está basado en fe y motivado por mí como un bálsamo de fe, esperanza y caridad. Para que en cada parágrafo lleve grabado puño y letra del verdadero autor Jesucristo, el Maestro de los Maestros, el que ha inspirado en mí a través de la Revelación del Mensaje del Infinito y la gracia del cielo, para que en él encuentre alivio todo aquel que este cargado. Que encuentre descanso, paz y consuelo, ya que del huerto de Dios, este santo rosario de plegarias y oraciones, traerá paz donde haya discordia y alivio del alma y un remanso de paz celestial para el que esté afligido. Santa palabra, Dios te ama... Amen, Aleluya El Pensador

Book Mexico s Supreme Court

    Book Details:
  • Author : Timothy M. James
  • Publisher : UNM Press
  • Release : 2013-12-01
  • ISBN : 0826353797
  • Pages : 166 pages

Download or read book Mexico s Supreme Court written by Timothy M. James and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Mexico’s Constitution of 1917 mandated the division of large landholdings, provided land for the landless, and guaranteed workers the rights to organize, strike, and bargain collectively, it also guaranteed fundamental liberal rights to property and due process that enabled property owners and employers to resist the implementation of the new social rights by filing suit in federal court. Taking as its main focus the way new and old rights were adjudicated before the Supreme Court, this book is the first to examine the subject through the lens of court documents and the writings and commentaries of jurists and other legal professionals. The author asks and answers the question, how did the judicial interpretation of the Constitution of 1917 become a barrier to implementing agrarian land rights and labor legislation in the years immediately following Mexico’s social revolution of 1910?
