Abstract:

In this modern and advance era of competition, corporate sector plays an extremely important role in the development of a state by strengthening its economy and ensuring the economic stability. The corporations are controlled by the shareholders. In a corporation/company, minority shareholders also play a vital role in the business of the company. Laws have been formulated for the protection of the minority shareholders, however, these laws are not observed in its true spirit due to the ignorance of minority shareholders about their rights. The scope of this article is to review the status of

Abstract:

This article argues that there are both practical and conceptual reasons for relaxing the prevailing state-centric frameworks for minority protection in the global arena. The article discusses two example cases: the indigenous Sami and the Roma travellers. It draws on analyses of the kinds of rights protected by the key international minority rights documents, and the kinds of goods these rights provide access to. The article argues that the cross-border nature of certain minorities poses specific challenges to the prevailing system of distributing responsibilities for protecting minorities ac

Among the main conditions for joining the European Union (eu) are the protection of human rights, and particularly the protection of minority rights. In this way, the eu has become an important external dynamic that changes domestic policies. In this article, the limits of Europeanization are analysed at two different levels: at the legal and at the societal level. In the last years, Serbia has adopted legislative changes that have increased the protection level granted to minorities in the country.

Abstract:

The development of market and fair competition is based on the protection of individuals’ rights including shareholders’ rights. The interests of investors are ensured by solid legal guarantee. It is however important to keep in mind that the important goal of drawing the attention of investors should not jeopardize the rights of minority shareholders. Shareholders’ rights drew the attention of scholars from the very beginning.

The article focuses on the evolutionary development of international legal regulation in the field of protection of the national minority rights from the Westphalian system of international relations to the present.

However, since then, the international community has not reached a consensus on the content of the concept of minority: a unified approach to the issue has not been elaborated in either intern

Abstract:

Minority rights are a very sensitive issue for the international community in the context of the recognition and protection afforded to human rights. As the only internationally recognized rights-holders are the states, the recognition of minority groups as rights-holders would challenge the established principles of sovereignty, territorial integrity and statehood. Consequently, minority rights are constructed through international and regional documents from an individualistic perspective in order to project a certain notion of citizenship, sovereignty, nationhood or autonomy.

The territorial autonomy of ethno-national groups in Ethiopian federal context – in which the constituent units themselves are diverse – imposes a rigid conception of territory.

AbstractThe existing Chinese legal framework for the protection of minority language rights is challenged by the development of law for the promotion of the majority language.

However, despite that, the RNAL stipulates that the autonomous organs shall guarantee the freedom of the minority nationalities to use and develop their language, culture and traditions.

The legitimacy of secessionist movements has emerged as an important debate, while the protection of minorities within a democracy has become merely of peripheral interest to international law.

In international law, minority rights instruments have been traditionally conceived for, and applied to, old minority groups with the exclusion of new minority groups originating from migration. Yet, minority groups, irrespective of their being old or new minorities, can be subsumed under a common definition and have some basic common claims. This allows devising a common but differentiated set of rights and obligations for old and new minority groups alike.

This quest should have two aspects: dissociation from the (fake) sovereignty associations and articulation of ethnic discrimination.

The author outlines areas covered by constitutional texts and in doing so points to various deficiencies. The first one is brought on by the override clause provided in Section 33 of the Charter which makes it possible to suspend certain rights and a second one is found in the fact that the Charter does not deal with social and economic rights, a deficiency which is most likely to be perceived by members of a minority. His observations lead him to conclude that the courts will have to assume an activist role in order to implement various rights.

AbstractIn this article, I review legal initiativaes to improve conditions for the Roma peoples who live in the states of Europe. The question is timely given the accession of Romania and Bulgaria to the European Union on 1 January 2007. Romania contains the largest concentration of the Roma population in Europe. My article uncovers a schism between political theory and international law on the question of minority rights. I distinguish how the conclusions of Will Kymlicka, one of the most prolific writers on the subject of multiculturalism in political theory, differ from the international ju

Abstract:

AbstractThe European Union (EU) has increasing regulatory capacity and capability for minority rights protection. A combination of old and new governance measures have been useful in affording the EU that capacity. Both modes of governance impact on EU migrant groups, particularly where they are free movers of a different nationality, race or ethnic orgin to the (dominant) members of the states to which they have migrated. In addition, new governance measures also allow a degree of impact on other minority groups, such as national minorities, whether or not individuals from these groups exerci

Abstract:

The legal protection of religious diversity in plural societies is mainly supported by the human right to freedom of religion and belief, which is widely recognized under the international human rights law. However, interpretations of this law are far from univocal when it comes to managing the situation of persons whose religious beliefs are a minority. The so-called harmonisation practices are techniques to spread the content and exercise of this right. Similarly, the so-called Rights of minorities (as is the case of religious ones) also provide a protection framework, the scope of which has

Abstract:

This paper argues that cultural minorities enjoy a basic right to recognition and rejects the idea that migrants implicitly renounce their cultural claims when they leave their countries of origin, when they enter the receiving society, or when they may return. Need for cultural recognition arises from the “ethnicization” of immigrant minorities. A catalog of minority rights provides a reference list for assessing the particular cultural rights of immigrant minorities. They can generally claim rights which recognize a multicultural transformation of receiving societies (equality, liberty, prot
