This book was released on 2012-02-03 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a selective approach for states with more advanced human rights protection to establish a human rights court for Southeast Asia. It argues the inclusive approach currently employed by ASEAN to set up a human rights body covering all member states cannot produce a strong regional human rights mechanism. The mosaic of Southeast Asia reveals great diversity and high complexity in political regimes, human rights practice and participation by regional states in the global legal human rights framework. Cooperation among ASEAN members to protect and promote human rights remains limited. The time-honored principle of non-interference and the “ASEAN Way” still predominate in relations within ASEAN. These factors combine to explain why the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights is unlikely to be strong and effective in changing and promoting regional human rights protection. This book suggests a selective approach to establish a human rights court for Southeast Asia. It posits that a group of nations within Southeast Asia may be more willing to consider the possibility of a stronger human rights mechanism. It investigates the challenges to and the feasibility of such a proposal. Furthermore, it examines the design of the three existing regional human rights courts in Europe, the Americas, and Africa, and compares the rationales for those institutional designs with the specific context of Southeast Asia. A human rights court for all ASEAN members may not be possible at this time, but a court for some nations in the region is feasible and worth exploring. The path towards this goal is never an easy one; however, the region possesses the necessary conditions to gradually translate that goal into reality.

Download or read book Business and Human Rights in Southeast Asia written by Mahdev Mohan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business and human rights has emerged as a distinct field within the corporate governance movement. The endorsement by the United Nations Human Rights Council of a new set of Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights in 2011 reinforces the State’s duty to protect against human rights abuses by third parties, including business; the corporate responsibility to respect human rights; and greater access by victims to effective remedy, both judicial and non-judicial. This book draws on the UN Guiding Principles and recent national plans of action, to provide an overview of relevant developments within the ASEAN region. Bridging theory and practice, the editors have positioned this book at the intersection of human rights risk and its regulation. Chapter authors discuss the implications of key case-studies undertaken across the region and various sectors, with a particular focus on extractive industries, the environment, and infrastructure projects. Topics covered include: due diligence and the role of audits; businesses’ responsibilities to women and children; and the mitigation of human rights risks in the region's emerging markets. The book sheds light on how stakeholders currently approach business and human rights, and explores how the role of ASEAN States, and that of the institution itself, may be strengthened. In doing so, the book identifies critical challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for the region in relation to business and human rights. This book will be of excellent use and interest to scholars, practitioners and students of human rights, business and company law, international law, and corporate governance.

Download or read book Children of the East written by Leonard Davis and published by Janus Publishing Company Lim. This book was released on 1994 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is estimated that by the year 2010, 50 percent of the population of southeast Asia will be under 15 years of age. Based on a research project completed in 1993, this book provides a regional overview of the quality of life for these children, and is targeted not only at those with an academic and professional interest in child care and social policy, but also at the people in Southeast Asia and beyond who are generally unaffected by the concerns being highlighted and discussed, and remain untouched by questions relating to child care policy and practice. The book is divided into four chapters. Chapter 1, entitled"Needs, Rights and Injustices," serves as an introduction to the book, claiming that parents, whether married, cohabiting or single, wish to do their best for their children, and those who fail in their task are most often the victims of their poverty, upbringing, or environment. This chapter also provides information on different kinds of child care facilities in many different Southeast Asian countries. Chapter 2, "Asian Children in Context," provides information in statistical terms on the quality of life of Southeast Asian children. Topics discussed include population growth and family planning. Chapter 3, "Abuse, Neglect and Disease," discusses topics including street children, prostitution, children and war, children in affluent societies, and child suicides. Chapter 4, "Concern and Intervention," discusses the outlook for Southeast Asian children and describes promising programs developed for the care of young children. Contains 20 references. (MOK)
