and Human rights relation, Nelson and Dorsey (2003) identify three trends––a rights-based approach to development, collaborative campaigning by human rights and development NGOs, and the adoption of economic rights orientation by human rights groups––that are the substance of the growing interaction (pp.2014). When we approach to development, the implementation should focus on the human needs and human sufferings affected by man-made disaster, natural disaster, or poverty. According to the Humanitarian Charter, the NGOs should…

International human rights have a historical trajectory that emerges from a revolutionary process; which developed individual rights within legislative, ideological, economic, political and societal arenas. This essay will elaborate on impact of these phenomenons on institutionalized human rights through a liberal lense. It will then examine the role of human rights in practice and explore the realist nature in which they occur in the political arena. Liberalist believe that institutionalized…

To begin with, human rights has failed in terms of international law. Human rights are defined as “the existence of rights that all human beings possess that even one’s own government cannot infringe on or deny and then can be protected by external elements, as through the United Nations.” There are 30 provisions in the Declaration of Human Rights that was passed on December 10th, 1948 by the United Nations General Assembly. However, not many of these are seen as universal. Most of these…

develop appropriate statue prospectively to decrease breaches of human rights before issues of violation of human right are brought to the court. One of the principal roles of the Australian Parliament is human rights protection. The Racial discrimination Act 1975 (Cth), Sex discrimination Act 1984 (Cth), disability discrimination Act 1992 (Cth), and Age discrimination Act 2004 (Cth), are statues enacted to enforce human right.

Mixed Results of the Human Rights Council When one pursues to have their own business, it becomes vital to have some sort of rules and arrangements in order for things run accordingly. It has been noted how “international managers must consider variables for implementing a strategy” (Deresky, 2014). That being said, one of the variables is to have an organizational structure, that can help every person involved to understand their assigned roles, and in return, possibly have a successful…

U.S human rights activists remain hopeful that the Obama administration’s efforts will continue to and prioritize its human rights foreign policy agenda (Jost, 2009). With official tactics being quiet diplomacy, skeptics have doubts over the effectiveness of U.S human rights policies, yet with the implementation of the freedom of expression resolution, there is no doubt the U.S is taking the right steps in curbing human rights violations worldwide (Jost, 2009). In addition, with the failure of…

China has a benevolent dictatorship. One where to the outsider looking in, human rights are promoted, yet inexistent. These rights include, but are not exclusive to, civil, political, economic, social, and cultural freedoms set forth by a ‘code’ that is acknowledged worldwide. Many of these ‘rules’ of conduct are stimulated by America’s civil rights department reports as well as independent organizations like Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International. Additionally, the Universal Declaration…

Majority held that the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 was discriminatory under the Human Rights Act 1998 because the power was only extended to non-nationals . In A v SSHD, human rights laws had worked in favour of liberalism as it empowered courts to question an Act of Parliament. This suggests that if the Human Rights Act 1998 or ECHR applied to Bancoult (No 2), there could have been a better outcome for liberalism. Nonetheless, Lord Bingham reasoned that through the Chagossians’…

In the United States (US) in 2015 at least twenty-one transgender people were killed in acts of violence, the highest ever recorded, and the numbers for 2016 look just as bad or worse (Human Rights Watch, 2016). If you account for the high levels of violence against trans people, including physical and sexual assault, the numbers become staggering. There is history of systemic violence and human rights violations against trans people in the US that is continuing to grow despite meager gains by…

more people pay their attention to the human rights, as it is very associated with people’s daily lives. Especially for China, it has the biggest population in the world, which has reached about 1.3 billion and it accounts 1/5 of the world’s population.

Therefore, the proposal is aiming to explore the human rights in China, from…
