Download or read book La construction du droit des peuples autochtones written by Jérôme Bouquet-Elkai͏̈m and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 853 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les peuples autochtones ont une identité culturelle, des institutions et un système juridique propres. Au cours de l'histoire, ceux-ci ont été niés et intégrés dans les Etats colonisateurs et leurs successeurs dans le cadre d'un processus d'"internalisation" que la décolonisation n'a pas remis en cause. L'Etat devenu modèle unique d'organisation sociale, les sociétés autochtones ont connu une érosion. Cette marginalisation a appelé des droits spécifiques protégeant les autochtones à titre individuel et collectif et garantissant le respect de leurs valeurs et de leur dignité. La réglementation internationale du travail a permis une reconnaissance juridique de l'existence de sociétés autochtones. Le droit international de l'environnement a ensuite consacré le lien de ces sociétés à l'environnement et leur rôle positif en matière de développement durable. Mais les droits de l'homme ont été le cadre véritable d'émergence du concept de "peuples autochtones". Dans le Projet de Déclaration des Droits des Peuples Autochtones des Nations Unies, à une interprétation uniforme s'est opposée une approche intégrée des droits de l'homme reposant sur l'interdépendance entre droits individuels et collectifs, la garantie des droits à la terre, la reconnaissance des institutions et systèmes juridiques autochtones. Cette évolution a convergé vers la réaffirmation du droit des peuples autochtones à l'autodétermination qui réinterprété doit garantir l'identité culturelle des peuples autochtones et conduit à une redéfinition de la fonction de l'Etat et à une résurgence des peuples autochtones comme sujets de droit international.
Download or read book Labour Rights as Human Rights written by Philip Alston and published by Collected Courses of the Acade. This book was released on 2005 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are efforts to protect workers' rights compatible with the forces of globalization? How can minimum standards designed to protect labour rights be implemented in a world in which national labour law is more and more at the mercy of international forces beyond its control? And does it makeany difference if we see rights such as the right to freedom of association, to non-discrimination in the workplace, to freedom from child labour, and to safe and healthy working conditions in terms of international human rights law? Or are they more appropriately seen as 'principles' to bepromoted as and where appropriate?The contributors to this volume argue that international agreements and institutions are of central importance if labour rights are to be protected in a globalized economy. But the report cards they give to the World Trade Organization, the European Union, NAFTA, and the Free Trade Agreement of theAmericas are generally very critical. While there is a strong rhetorical commitment to labour rights, at least on the part of the US and the EU, the substance of what has been achieved to date is hardly impressive. The role of the International Labour Organization is central and the authorsexplore some of the options that are open to governments, civil society, and the labour movement in the years ahead.

Book excerpt: The continent of Africa is rich in minerals needed by Western economies, but rather than forming the basis for economic growth the mining industry contributes very little to African development Investigating the impact of the 2003 Extractive Industries Review on a number of African countries, the contributors find the root of the problem in the controls imposed on the African countries by the IMF and World Bank.

Download or read book Vulnerable written by Colleen M. Flood and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, has infected people in 212 countries so far and on every continent except Antarctica. Vast changes to our home lives, social interactions, government functioning and relations between countries have swept the world in a few months and are difficult to hold in one’s mind at one time. That is why a collaborative effort such as this edited, multidisciplinary collection is needed. This book confronts the vulnerabilities and interconnectedness made visible by the pandemic and its consequences, along with the legal, ethical and policy responses. These include vulnerabilities for people who have been harmed or will be harmed by the virus directly and those harmed by measures taken to slow its relentless march; vulnerabilities exposed in our institutions, governance and legal structures; and vulnerabilities in other countries and at the global level where persistent injustices harm us all. Hopefully, COVID-19 will forces us to deeply reflect on how we govern and our policy priorities; to focus preparedness, precaution, and recovery to include all, not just some. Published in English with some chapters in French.
