The Good, The Bad, The Ugly: Human Rights Violators In Comparative Perspective, Austin Choi-Fitzpatrick

School of Peace Studies: Faculty Scholarship

A large and growing wave of scholarship has focused attention on a variety of contemporary forms of slavery. Early attention went to victims of sexual exploitation, though this is starting to slowly change with a growing body of work on labor exploitation.

To leverage this opportunity, it is useful to understand thematic hearings and how they function within the Inter‐ …

Corporate Agricultural Investment And The Right To Food: Addressing Disparate Protections And Promoting Rights-Consistent Outcomes, Kaitlin Y. Cordes, Anna Bulman

Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment Staff Publications

This Article examines the impact of large-scale corporate agricultural investment on the right to food, as well as on human rights more generally.
