Download or read book Prior Informed Consent and Hazardous Trade written by David Langlet and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking study is the first book to take a comprehensive approach to the subject of transboundary shipments of hazardous substances and the instruments employed for regulating such shipments. It fully explains which types of trade regulating instruments are employed by which agreements, and then goes on to evaluate the pros and cons of these instruments with respect to their compatibility with international legal norms, especially WTO law. Taken in conjunction with other trade-regulating measures, this analysis assesses the PIC concept/ procedure from three perspectives: its effect on state sovereignty, its potential for enhancing environmental and health protection in importing states, and its relationship with the free-trade regime, represented primarily by the GATT and the SPS and TBT Agreements of the WTO. The analysis also includes coverage of the pertinent export laws of the EU and the United-States, and of the export and import laws of India pertaining to potentially hazardous substances and products.

Book excerpt: Trade is a species of exchange rooted in a rich experience of encounter, opportunity, risk, and inequalities of power. All of this enters into the relationship between trade, defined here--following Berge--as the free circulation of goods, and questions of meaning and value (our subject today). In my view, this relationship can be conceptualized in at least three ways. One relationship between trade and values is called in the literature “linkage,” whereby the benefits of free circulation are conditioned on a commitment to some other non-trade value. A prominent and relevant example is the link between EU membership and joining the European Convention on Human Rights, thereby using the benefits of free circulation to promote the protection of human rights. A second relationship we could call “justification,” in which free circulation is justified in a normative sense by reference to some other non-trade value such as freedom, or some view of property rights or natural rights. Thus private parties must be allowed to trade, and to trade free from government intervention, as a consequence of human freedom, for example. In this short essay I propose to examine a third such relationship, which I am calling a constitutive relationship. In this relationship neither trade nor values are being conceived of or employed instrumentally; instead, there is an essential relationship between the nature of trade itself, understood here as a mutual exchange of goods, and the “value” we call “consent.” In other words, for an exchange to be trade, as we use the term in ordinary speech and in law, it must be consensual. If it is not consensual, then it is something else--coercion, exploitation, theft or some other kind of extraction or wealth transfer--but it is not trade. Consent is thus constitutive of trade, not instrumental to it, or vice versa. This essay will be printed as Chapitre 13 in the forthcoming "https://www.larcier.com/fr/le-sens-des-libertes-economiques-de-circulation-2020-9782802765479.html" Le sens des libertés économiques de circulation / The Sense of Economic Freedoms of Movement, edited by Jean-Sylvestre Bergé and Giulio Cesare Giorgini, and has been posted here with permission of the editors.

Download or read book Manufacturing Consent written by Edward S. Herman and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "compelling indictment of the news media's role in covering up errors and deceptions" (The New York Times Book Review) due to the underlying economics of publishing—from famed scholars Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky. With a new introduction. In this pathbreaking work, Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky show that, contrary to the usual image of the news media as cantankerous, obstinate, and ubiquitous in their search for truth and defense of justice, in their actual practice they defend the economic, social, and political agendas of the privileged groups that dominate domestic society, the state, and the global order. Based on a series of case studies—including the media’s dichotomous treatment of “worthy” versus “unworthy” victims, “legitimizing” and “meaningless” Third World elections, and devastating critiques of media coverage of the U.S. wars against Indochina—Herman and Chomsky draw on decades of criticism and research to propose a Propaganda Model to explain the media’s behavior and performance. Their new introduction updates the Propaganda Model and the earlier case studies, and it discusses several other applications. These include the manner in which the media covered the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement and subsequent Mexican financial meltdown of 1994-1995, the media’s handling of the protests against the World Trade Organization, World Bank, and International Monetary Fund in 1999 and 2000, and the media’s treatment of the chemical industry and its regulation. What emerges from this work is a powerful assessment of how propagandistic the U.S. mass media are, how they systematically fail to live up to their self-image as providers of the kind of information that people need to make sense of the world, and how we can understand their function in a radically new way.

Download or read book Consent of the Networked written by Rebecca MacKinnon and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2012-01-31 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet was going to liberate us, but in truth it has not. For every story about the web's empowering role in events such as the Arab Spring, there are many more about the quiet corrosion of civil liberties by companies and governments using the same digital technologies we have come to depend upon. In Consent of the Networked, journalist and Internet policy specialist Rebecca MacKinnon argues that it is time to fight for our rights before they are sold, legislated, programmed, and engineered away. Every day, the corporate sovereigns of cyberspace (Google and Facebook, among others) make decisions that affect our physical freedom -- but without our consent. Yet the traditional solution to unaccountable corporate behavior -- government regulation -- cannot stop the abuse of digital power on its own, and sometimes even contributes to it. A clarion call to action, Consent of the Networked shows that it is time to stop arguing over whether the Internet empowers people, and address the urgent question of how technology should be governed to support the rights and liberties of users around the world.
