Abstract:
In A Bed for the Night, David Rieff explains his frustration at the limitations and shortcomings of contemporary humanitarianism. He investigates the gap between the admirable norms of the human rights movement and the unpleasant facts of the humanitarian crises in Bosnia, Rwanda, Kosovo and Afghanistan. He urges us to revise our assumptions about the reach of the human rights revolution and the workings of the international community. He concludes that, however much one might wish it otherwise, independent humanitarianism is not capable, on its own, of advancing the cause of human rights, con

We, a coalition of independent Iranian women's organizations, express our solidarity with the women of Afghanistan in the fight against the reinstated Taliban, and deeply commiserate with them on the suffering that has been inflicted upon them. Iranian and Afghan women have a common experience in dealing with political Islam, oppression, repression, and lawlessness imposed by misogynistic and reactionary governments. In these critical times we are determined to raise our voices against the reactionary, fundamentalist, and anti-woman forces in this dangerous situation. Together with the women o

Abstract:
Independent experts are employed in international organizations to carry out a variety of functions, including conducting independent evaluations of state performance in a given policy area. In the field of human rights, a well-known example of the use of independent expertise in public organizations is that of the United Nations treaty bodies, committees of independent experts in charge of monitoring state compliance with the major United Nations human rights treaties. Considering the sensitive tasks that these experts perform, and the fact that they are elected by states, the question of whe

Abstract:
Corruption severely impacts various aspects of women's lives in developing countries, with Afghanistan serving as a poignant example. Despite the potential for progress during the democratic governance established in 2001, systemic corruption within the government has led to a dismal situation for women. Dominated by patriarchal norms, Afghan society presents numerous challenges for women, including a lack of legal protection and fundamental rights, which are eroded by pervasive corruption. Research indicates that women, particularly in Afghanistan, face disproportionate suffering due to these

Abstract:
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, US interests in the newly independent states of Central Asia were somewhat limited. However, with new developments, the region strategically became important for the US. The main reasons are the energy resources of Central Asia, the region's strategic geographical location, US involvement in Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and post NATO/US army exit situation in the region and Afghanistan and the threat of reemergence of Taliban. It seems that the US followed a policy of democracy,human rights, the rule of law and development but at the same time

Abstract:
Issues of sexual orientation and gender identity were raised in two of the United Nations intergovernmental world conferences on women, 1985 and 1995, and in the Vienna world conference on human rights in 1993. From 2006 a number of LGBTI Non-Governmental Organizations gained ongoing ‘consultative status’ from the Economic and Social Council allowing access to regular UN human rights events. Leading human rights NGOs, such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch began to address LGBTI issues. The Human Rights Council condemned violence and discrimination on grounds of sexual orientatio

Since 2003, the United Nations international human rights framework has moved notably toward increased international human rights recognition for sexual and gender minorities. Most recently, 2016 saw the adoption of an Independent Expert on violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Motivated by the nevertheless continued refusal by predominantly African and Middle Eastern countries to recognize any such human rights application, as well as postcolonial critiques of counterproductive moral imperialism and homonationalist strategies by proponent member States,

The continuously and dynamically growing number of older persons worldwide experience various types of exclusion, negligence, isolation, degrading treatment, elder abuse and the deprivation of a long list of their human rights. Regardless of residence and standard of living in a given country, older adults are the most excluded from the mainstream. Just as racism or sexism leads to a violation of the dignity and rights of people of a different race or gender, so ageism has a similar effect. Therefore, combating ageism is a challenge to international human rights law. This chapter is based on t

In order to influence regional and international entities, coordinated activity by NGOs and activists had also grown at the global level at this time.
