Book excerpt: Les avancées juridiques réalisées en matière de protection de l'être humain face à la guerre contrastent avec le sort vécu par les femmes et les enfants dans les conflits armés en Afrique. Il faudrait une mobilisation générale de tous les acteurs pour une action concertée tendant à la prévention concrète des conflits armés et à une meilleure gestion de leurs effets dévastateurs sur les femmes et les enfants. Dans cette dynamique, tout Etat africain devrait assumer avec détermination les obligations légales qui lui incombent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pendant des millénaires, les femmes ont occupé une place de strapontin dans l’Histoire. Dans des domaines aussi variés que les créations littéraire et artistique, la pensée philosophique, les sciences ou l’action politique, d’Eve à la reine de Saba, de Brunehaut à Jeanne d’Arc, de Christine de Pisan à Colette, peu de femmes ont atteint au cours des siècles les sommets de la célébrité. Dans le monde, le nombre des femmes est à peu près égal, parfois très légèrement supérieur, à celui des hommes. Pourtant, la gloire et la notoriété ont été presque constamment l’apanage des hommes. [...] L’homme refuse d’accorder à la femme les mêmes droits dont il jouit. Les hommes excipent de mythes pour que les femmes subissent l’Histoire (première partie de cet ouvrage). L’homme s’abritera derrière des tabous sexuels et des tabous sociaux pour justifier cette attitude qui n’empêchera pas les droits de la femme de progresser (deuxième partie). Enfin, nous étudierons la nature et l’évolution des droits des femmes dans divers pays et notamment en France (troisième partie)." Extrait de l'introduction

Book excerpt: "Du « droit applicable à l'enfant », vision traditionnelle mais qui demeure ambiguë, on est passé, notamment depuis la Convention de l'ONU de 1989, aux « droits de l'enfant ». Cette mutation récente est la traduction de la promotion de la philosophie des droits de l'homme : l'enfant est désormais pensé comme un sujet, une personne dotée de liberté. Certes, pareil changement de perspective se réfère volontiers à « l'intérêt supérieur » de l'enfant. Reste que celui-ci est toujours qualifié de tel par les adultes. Et que le premier droit de l'enfant est sans doute celui de devenir un homme ou une femme, responsable et heureux."--Résumé de l'éditeur.

Book excerpt: Compendium of documents on National Human Rights Institutions in eastern and southern Africa Edited by Charles M Fombad 2019 ISBN: 978-1-920538-95-8 Pages: 898 Print version: Available Electronic version: Free PDF available About the publication Africa’s increasing recognition and protection of human rights have been accompanied by a surge in the number of NHRIs established with broad mandates to promote and protect human rights. The mandates and powers of the NHRIs vary from country to country, as does their ability to deliver on these mandates. Indeed, the rapid increase in the number of NHRIs in Africa has come with a variety of substantive and operational challenges. In the face of such challenges, those who work in NHRIs need to understand the broader regional and global context in which the institutions operate and the changing nature of human rights issues. This compendium provides an overview of NHRIs in eastern and southern Africa. It is guided to a large extent by the internationally agreed-upon Principles Relating to the Status of National Institutions, referred to as the Paris Principles. These Principles are broadly accepted as the benchmark against which the legitimacy and credibility of NHRIs can be assessed. Endorsed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1993, the Paris Principles provide NHRIs with guidelines as to their competence and responsibilities, their composition and guarantees of independence and pluralism, and their methods of operation; additional principles relate to the status of commissions with quasi-jurisdictional competence. The generous financial support of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, Rule of Law for Sub-Saharan Africa, Nairobi, Kenya office, is gratefully acknowledged.

Download or read book Monitoring Children s Rights written by Verhellen and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 966 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intense political, social and scientific efforts to improve the position of children are converging rapidly, centered on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. It is therefore reasonable to assume that there is broad consensus in the international community on how to take the position of children in society seriously. Despite the unique success of the Convention, the situation is such that it forces us, as a matter of urgency, to explore, develop and implement guarantees for effective monitoring of the implementation of the Convention's provisions. In the end, rights are only effective when implemented. This book, containing the contributions made and discussed at the European Conference on Monitoring Children's Rights (organized by Ghent University's Children's Rights Centre in December 1994), presents the results of interdisciplinary research into monitoring to a wider scientific forum. Several monitoring issues are tackled, with particular emphasis on the reporting system: what should be reported (the content of the reports) and who should report (the more formal and procedural aspects of reporting)? Apart from a suitable monitoring mechanism, there is also the self-executing force of the Convention, making it directly enforceable in national courts. Ongoing and dynamic monitoring can be a powerful impetus to making systematic progress in this area. The debate on monitoring the Children's Rights Convention may in this way expand into an attractive and exemplary debate on human rights conventions in general. This book will therefore not only meet the requirements of all those working in the field of children's rights, but can also provide appealing material for all those involved in the field of monitoring human rights.

Book excerpt: This title presents twenty-nine topics, prepared by leading scholars in more than 20 countries, providing a comparative analysis of cutting-edge legal topics of the 21st century. Considering topics of vital moment to contemporary legal scholars, the title includes pieces on Surrogate Motherhood, The Balance of Copyright in Comparative Perspective, International Law in Domestic Systems, Constitutional Courts as "Positive Legislators," Same-sex Marriage, Climate Change and the Law, The Regulation of Private Equity, Hedge Funds, and State Funds, and Regulation of Corporate Tax Evasion. Each chapter surveys legal developments in the U.S. and Canada, Europe, Asia, Latin and South America, Africa, and the Middle East in a format that permits the reader easy access to similarities and differences in the approaches of the selected national regimes. This comprehensive volume tells the story of parallel trends in the evolution of legal doctrine despite jurisdictional, cultural, and political barriers. While each of the covered countries stands alone as a sovereign, in a technologically advanced world their disparate systems nonetheless have converged to adopt comparable strategies in dealing with complex legal issues. The volume is a critical addition to the library of any scholar hoping to keep abreast of the major trends in contemporary law.
Download or read book Contested Paternity written by Rachel G. Fuchs and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2008-07-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2009 J. Russell Major Prize, American Historical AssociationWinner, 2009 Frances Richardson Keller-Sierra Prize, Western Association of Women HistoriansWinner, 2008 Charles E. Smith Award, European History section of the Southern Historical Association This groundbreaking study examines complex notions of paternity and fatherhood in modern France through the lens of contested paternity. Drawing from archival judicial records on paternity suits, paternity denials, deprivation of paternity, and adoption, from the end of the eighteenth century through the twentieth, Rachel G. Fuchs reveals how paternity was defined and how it functioned in the culture and experiences of individual men and women. She addresses the competing definitions of paternity and of families, how public policy toward paternity and the family shifted, and what individuals did to facilitate their personal and familial ideals and goals. Issues of paternity and the family have broad implications for an understanding of how private acts were governed by laws of the state. Focusing on paternity as a category of family history, Contested Paternity emphasizes the importance of fatherhood, the family, and the law within the greater context of changing attitudes toward parental responsibility.
