State Sovereignty And Human Rights, Jack Donnelly
Human Rights & Human Welfare
Sovereignty and human rights typically are seen as fundamentally opposed: the rights of states pitted against the rights of individuals; 1648 (the Peace of Westphalia) versus 1948 (the Universal Declaration of Human Rights).

Human Rights And The Neo-Conservative Project: What’S Not To Like?, Tom J. Farer
Human Rights & Human Welfare
Hegemony, as neo-cons argued in the 1990s, is not the mere possession of dominating power but also the will to use it on behalf of a coherent project. In the Clinton years, hegemony was only latent. The catastrophe of September 2001 created the circumstances in which it could be made real. To what end? There is not yet a single comprehensive statement of the neoconservative project and its premises.

The Right To Health, Sarah Friedmann
The Right To Health, Sarah Friedmann
Human Rights & Human Welfare
In the human rights discourse and practice the right to health has been and continues to be a contentious arena. Primarily located within legal frameworks that focus on civil and political rights, the right to health is more frequently being used to challenge abuses of health by invoking social and economic rights, even though this places the right to health on slippery terrain that is not as internationally accepted as civil and political rights.
Health, Human Rights And The Pharmaceutical Industry, Gerald Montgomery
Health, Human Rights And The Pharmaceutical Industry, Gerald Montgomery
Human Rights & Human Welfare
The pharmaceutical industry is a crucial touchstone in the discussion of corporate responsibility to promote human rights. This relationship is, however, problematic at best and, at worst work in opposition to each other. At the same time that drug producers are instrumental in promoting a basic level of human welfare, the outlook of major pharmaceutical corporations are mitigated by unfiltered lenses of profit. With hundreds of millions of dollars spent on research and development, patenting, and marketing, they understandably develop strategies for handling reoccurring costs. But should a morally responsible international community redirect these costs to the developing world or …

Armed Conflict, Health And Human Rights, Alex Deraney, Hafsteinn Hafsteinsson
Armed Conflict, Health And Human Rights, Alex Deraney, Hafsteinn Hafsteinsson
Human Rights & Human Welfare
This section highlights resources with information on health concerns that arise from armed conflict. It examines human rights violations as derived from health issues and the humanitarian efforts to alleviate them. The vast majority of available literature approaches conflict-related healthcare shortfalls in terms of intervention. Literature dealing with armed conflict and health as it applies to human rights is much harder to come by, which indicates the need for additional emphasis in this area.
