Paperback. Zustand: Like New. First Edition. In nearly new condition: firm and square with strong joints, no creases. Just a few hardly noticeable rubs or very mild bumps. Hence a non-text page shows a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book looks and feels unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight. And so a very nice book in great condition, now offered for sale at a reasonable price.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention is the first comprehensive review of the contributions of this important institution to understanding arbitrary detention today. The Working Group is a body of five independent human rights experts that considers individual complaints of arbitrary detention, adopting legal opinions as to whether a detention is compatible with states' obligations under international law. Since its establishment in 1991, it has adopted more than 1,200 case opinions and conducted more than fifty country missions. But much more than a jurisprudential review, these cases are presented in the book in the style of a treatise, where the widest array of issues on arbitrary detention are placed in the context of the requirements of multilateral treaties and other relevant international standards. Written for both practitioners and serious scholars alike, this book includes five case studies and a foreword by Archbishop Desmond M. Tutu.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This is the first comprehensive look at the human rights dimensions of the work of the only body within the United Nations system capable of compelling action by its member states.

This book examines questions including: how is the Security Council dealing with human rights concerns What does it see as the place of human rights in conflict prevention, peacemaking and peacekeeping And how does it address the quest for justice in the face of gross violations of human rights Written by leading practitioners, scholars and experts, this book provides a broad perspective that describes, explains and evaluates the contribution of the Security Council to the promotion of human rights and how it might more effectively achieve its goals.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Human rights have been embedded in the work of the United Nations since its creation. The very purpose of the United Nations, set forth in the UN Charter, is to 'reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights' and 'encourag[e] respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms.' Creating an efficient and effective machinery to do so, however, has been a persistent challenge. Not only are the human rights functions of the United Nations carried out by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and an array of bodies, agencies, experts, and mechanisms. But the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, which is supposed to drive the core human rights work of the United Nations, receives only some $200 million annually, less than four percent of the UN's regular budget.The Oxford Handbook of the UN Human Rights System is the first comprehensive and compelling practical account of the human rights work carried out by the United Nations. It explains the various parts of the system, describes the functions, strengths, and weaknesses of each key body, and examines how each of the individual parts of this system and the broader system can be improved to deliver results for the peoples of the world. This book examines these questions over time, looking back at the historical engagement of each UN body with human rights, reviewing what each body is doing now and what it has achieved, and proposing practical and targeted suggestions for reform. Importantly, each chapter is authored by either current or former diplomats who have led each part of the system or by expert practitioners. Taken together, this Oxford Handbook provides a truly unique and first-ever view of the both entire system and its individual parts as they are today and how they can be harnessed going forward for greater impact.
