Abstract

In recent decades, and in particular as a result of global climate change, the significance of the Arctic has radically shifted, from a remote periphery to a region of intensifying political and academic interest and of conflicting interests. This collection of texts examines in particular how national and international politics and law impact on Arctic governance, communications and indigenous rights; and in parallel, explores perceptions and experiences of the North in literature and the dramatic arts. The book thus offers a platform for cross-disciplinary dialogue, in order to highlight tha

Abstract

"This groundbreaking book offers a compelling articulation of the right of access to justice for individuals facing human rights violations by international organizations. Following an examination of the human rights obligations of a variety of international organizations, the author scrutinizes their dispute settlement mechanisms as well as the conflict between their immunities and the right of access to justice before national jurisdictions. Highlighting recent examples, such as the cholera outbreak in Haiti, this book reveals how individual victims of human rights violations by international organizations are frequently left in the cold, due to the lack of an independent, impartial dispute settlement mechanism before which they can file such claims. Considering both global mechanisms and current mechanisms established by international organizations such as administrative jurisdictions for employment-related disputes, Pierre Schmitt finds that they either are not competent or that they have a limited scope. He concludes by offering normative proposals addressed both to international organizations and to national judges confronted with such cases. Offering a wealth of empirical and practical wisdom, this book will appeal to scholars in public international law and human rights. It is also a must-read for practitioners, judges and legal advisers working in the field and will prove a useful tool for national authorities negotiating immunity conventions with international organizations."--Page 4 de la couverture.

Abstract

Based on research conducted in more than seventy countries over a forty-year span, Cultures and Organizations examines what drives people apart-when cooperationis so clearly in everyone's interest. With major new contributions from Michael Minkov's analysis of data from the World Values Survey, as well as an account ofthe evolution of cultures by Gert Jan Hofstede, this revised and expanded edition:Reveals the "moral circles" from which national societies are built and the unexamined rules by which people think,feel, and act. Explores how national cultures differ in the areas of inequality,assertiveness versus modesty, and tolerance for ambiguity.Explains how organizational cultures differ from nationalcultures-and how they can be managed.Analyzes stereotyping, differences in language, cultural rootsof the 2008 economic crisis, and other intercultural dynamicshttps://www.mhprofessional.com/9780071664189-usa-cultures-and-organizations-software-of-the-mind-third-edition-group
