Religião, Direitos Humanos E Educação, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha Nov 2006

Religião, Direitos Humanos E Educação, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

Não admira que haja atritos, incompreensões, entre as religiões e os poderes. Porque, antes de mais, foi preciso a uns e a outros comprimirem-se para darem lugar (espaço, mesmo) ao outro tipo de normatividade e de poder. Em muitos casos históricos se terá começado com um poder de índole teocrática. E só com o tempo e o progresso social e político se passaria a admitir a cisão do mando, num ramo secular e num ramo sacral. O grande problema do tratamento da questão religiosa do ponto de vista dos Direitos Humanos, é que se trata, no limite, de pôr uma …


Doomed Internationalist, Kenneth Anderson Sep 2006

Doomed Internationalist, Kenneth Anderson

Kenneth Anderson

Introduction. The neoconservative influence on American foreign policy has not had an enthusiastic response outside the United States. Its failure to bring peace and democracy to Iraq has now resulted in a spate of critiques in America itself, even from within the policy establishment. The highest-level defection has been that of Francis Fukuyama, author of The End of History and the Last Man (1992), the paean to the triumph of capitalism that became a canonical neoconservative text of the 1990's, articulating the transition from the Clinton administration to that of George W. Bush. In his new book, After the Neocons, …

Lion In Winter – Tomás Moro Na Nossa Estação. Diálogos Com O Direito Constitucional, O Cristianismo E A Utopia Social, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha May 2006

Lion In Winter – Tomás Moro Na Nossa Estação. Diálogos Com O Direito Constitucional, O Cristianismo E A Utopia Social, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

Três tópicos sintetizam as preocupações da presente leitura de Tomás Moro: antes de mais, o direito constitucional e a polémica constitucional que acabou em crime político sob forma penal – a decapitação de Moro por traição; depois (mas apenas por comodidade depois, porque está antes de tudo em Moro), o cristianismo, mola propulsora da vida, do pensamento e da obra desta figura; finalmente, a utopia social, o seu contributo para a filosofia política, numa clave que normalmente não é a da maioria dos expoentes recentes do pensamento cristão – e daí, também, a sua originalidade.

Wto Government Procurement Rules And The Local Dynamics Of Procurement Policies: A Malaysian Case Study, Stuart G. Gross Apr 2006

Wto Government Procurement Rules And The Local Dynamics Of Procurement Policies: A Malaysian Case Study, Stuart G. Gross

Stuart G Gross

This article examines efforts to create binding international rules regulating public procurement and considers, in particular, the failure to reach a WTO agreement on transparency in government procurement. The particular focus of the discussion is the approach taken by Malaysia to these international procurement rules and to the negotiation of an agreement on transparency. Rules governing public procurement directly implicate fundamental arrangements of authority amongst and between different parts of government, its citizens and non-citizens. At the same time, the rules touch upon areas that are particularly sensitive for some developing countries. Many governments use preferences in public procurement to …

Integrating Trade And Human Rights In The Americas, Frank Garcia Dec 2005

Integrating Trade And Human Rights In The Americas, Frank Garcia

Frank J. Garcia

This paper analyzes the relationship between the OAS Inter-American human rights system and several regional integration systems, including NAFTA, MERCOSUR and the proposed Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). Broadly speaking, there are two models for the relationship between integration systems and human rights protection: the leverage model and the incorporation model. The leverage model involves making effective participation in extrinsic human rights systems a legal or political condition of integration system membership. The incorporation model focuses on the juridical interpenetration of the two systems at many levels. This paper will focus on the leverage model, as it applies …

Reputation And International Law, Andrew Guzman Dec 2005

Reputation And International Law, Andrew Guzman

Andrew T Guzman

Among the reasons that states comply with international law in the absence of coercive enforcement mechanisms is a concern for their reputation for compliance with international legal rules. Such a reputation is valuable because it allows states to make credible commitments to one another in an effort to overcome problems of cooperation. To date neither the international relations nor the international law literature has developed a theory of reputation that explains in detail how states acquire a reputation for compliance, how they lose it, and how it affects behavior. This paper seeks to provide such a theory. It examines how …

Commercial Arbitration In The Islamic Middle East, Art Gemmell Dr. Dec 2005

Commercial Arbitration In The Islamic Middle East, Art Gemmell Dr.

art gemmell

As any observer of the international commercial scene will attest, globalization has spawned an untold number of daily international business transactions. From these transactions, disputes arose and states worried that their domestic court system would be unable to deal with foreign commercial disputes expeditiously and equitably. In order to both address these concerns and to promote the use of international arbitration, a host of international and regional conventions was established to deal with the peaceful settlement of disputes. The Islamic Middle East has not fully embraced what might be euphemistically referred to as a“modern” arbitral system.


Recent Legal Developments In The Field Of Human Trafficking: A Critical Review Of The 2005 European Convention And Related Instruments, Anne T. Gallagher Dec 2005

Recent Legal Developments In The Field Of Human Trafficking: A Critical Review Of The 2005 European Convention And Related Instruments, Anne T. Gallagher

Anne T Gallagher

In terms of both speed and substance, the development in human trafficking related norms and standards over the past several years is almost unprecedented in international law. This article examines the 2005 Council of Europe Convention on Action against Trafficking in Persons and the various legal and policy developments that led up to or otherwise intersect with this watershed agreement. The analysis focuses special attention on the issues of international obligation and responsibility around trafficking, particularly in relation to its important human rights dimensions. What exactly is required of States under the new European treaty in terms of specific actions …
