Abstract:

This article presents an analysis of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) in relation to prior United Nations conventions on disability and U.S. disability policy law with a view to identifying the conventional and also the incremental advances of the CRPD. Previous United Nations conventions related to disability have had, at best, partial success in effectively protecting the human rights of individuals with disabilities. The CRPD, as a policy instrument, has considerable potential for advancing the legal rights of persons with disabilities in the U

Abstract:

UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, voted overwhelmingly at the biennial meeting of its General Conference in Paris on October 17, 2003 to adopt a new international Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage. That Convention became international law on April 30, 2006. By the end of 2006 it had been ratified or accepted by 68 countries; today, that number is approaching universal acceptance with more than 160 nations having acceded to the convention. At the 2003 session, some 120 nation-members voted for the convention; more regist

Abstract:

This contribution examines the relevance of the European Convention on Human Rights for persons with disabilities. It points to Convention principles such as human dignity, personal autonomy and equality, which are especially important for persons in a vulnerable position. The text then turns to the negative and the positive obligations of the State vis-à-vis persons with disabilities. With respect to the former, the need for individualized assessments in decision-making processes and the requirement of striking a balance between the rights of individuals and the interests of the State are emp

Almost twenty years after the signing of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and negotiations over mitigation and adaptation strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions began, the negotiations continue to fall short of scientific goals to curb warming. Current UNFCCC procedures do not provide for mediation in the process of negotiations. Public policy mediation has been used often at local, national, and regional levels to resolve environmental disputes. The characteristics of the climate change negotiations suggest that mediation may provide a number of benefits to the

Human-driven changes to blue (surface water and groundwater) and green (soil moisture and atmospheric) water flows are intensifying risks such as floods, droughts, and biodiversity loss. The Global Commission on the Economics of Water (GCEW) calls for water to be treated as a global common good—placing ecosystems such as wetlands at the center of resilience strategies. Wetlands are critical natural infrastructure: they buffer climate extremes, recharge aquifers, purify water, and sustain atmospheric moisture cycles. Yet, they remain undervalued, degraded, and lost at alarming rates. This brief

Abstract:

Double taxation agreements (DTAs) usually ensure appropriate division of taxing rights and benefits between the treaty parties. However, when a DTA is between a capital-exporting and capital-importing country, the negotiations and DTA may be marred by the unequal bargaining power of the countries. Capital-exporting nations often influence the fundamental design of these treaties to favour the entities in their economies that are responsible for the capital outflow. This paper aims to understand the potential detrimental impact of one clause – the most favoured nation (MFN) clause in DTAs – on

Abstract:

Between 2001 and 2011, India’s urban population increased from almost 28 per cent to just over 31 per cent. Almost 139 million people migrated to cities (mainly Delhi and Mumbai), often bringing their children with them. Most live in poverty in informal settlements that lack basic infrastructure and services. Their children are often out of school and have no safe spaces to play. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), ratified by India in 1989, recognises children’s right to play as fundamental to their social, emotional, and physical wellbeing.
