Abstract

The first edition of The American Convention on Human Rights showed the hesitant steps of a court trying to find its way in a region plagued by egregious human rights violations, the absence of democracy and a significant disregard of international human rights norms. The second edition followed this up by introducing an analysis of the advancement in the reasoning of the Court regarding the violations that it had been dealing with since its inception.This, now co-authored, third edition contains an updated and in-depth analysis of the norms applied by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights to deal with the most frequent human rights violations that still occur in Latin America regarding life, humane treatment, personal liberty, due process, access to justice, the principle of legality and judicial protection. The second edition contained a chapter on disappearances, as the Court at the time had significantly developed its reasoning on the matter; this third edition shows the latest evolution on the subject, which still plagues the region. In addition, a new chapter examines discrimination, an issue that has emerged as a frequent and important concern in the Court’s work.This edition also reflects the dynamic development of the Court’s work in recent years, which has evolved to a more refined jurisprudence covering more specific aspects of the rights examined and topics not previously addressed. These include, inter alia, the justiciability of social, economic, cultural and environmental rights; the recognition of collective rights holders and State responsibility for gender-based torture committed by private actors. These advances are the result of considerable progress in the democratization and embrace of human rights in the countries under the Court’s jurisdiction.

Abstract

Jo M. Pasqualucci provides a comprehensive critique of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, which is at once scholarly yet practical. She analyzes all aspects of the Court's advisory jurisdiction, contentious jurisdiction, and provisional measures orders. When relevant, she compares the practice and procedure of the Inter-American Court with that of the European Court of Human Rights, the International Court of Justice, and the United Nations Human Rights Committee. She also evaluates the Rules of Procedure of the Inter-American Court and the Inter-American Commission, which entered into force in May and June of 2001 and bring about important procedural changes in the inter-relationship of those organs. In addition, she cites the effectiveness of the Convention and the Court's rulings in the domestic law of the States Parties to the Convention. This book will provide an important resource for scholars, practitioners, and students of international human rights law and practice.

Abstract

En el presente texto se analizan problemas, soluciones y representaciones en torno a los derechos humanos, fruto de investigaciones terminadas. Con relación a los problemas, el capítulo I estudia la concepción individualista de los derechos humanos que dificulta su implementación efectiva, mientras el capítulo II reflexiona acerca del comportamiento del Estado colombiano ante el Sistema Interamericano de Derechos Humanos que impacta negativamente en la garantía de los derechos de las víctimas. Respecto a las soluciones, varios capítulos se ocupan de algunas políticas públicas destinadas a la población víctima del conflicto armado y el desplazamiento forzado interno. Tal es el caso de los capítulos VII y VIII los cuales analizan, respectivamente, las estrategias de intervención psicosocial dirigidas a la promoción y fortalecimiento de la salud mental en población víctima de violencia sociopolítica y las acciones que el Estado colombiano ha desarrollado con el propósito de garantizar los derechos de las personas con discapacidad en el contexto de guerra interna. En cuanto a las representaciones acerca de los derechos humanos y su vulneración, los cuatro capítulos de la segunda sección de esta publicación dan cuenta de las vivencias y las interpretaciones de algunos niños y niñas del Colegio Jorge Soto del Corral de Bogotá acerca del conflicto armado y el desplazamiento forzado interno. Representaciones que son examinadas desde la perspectiva educativa, narrativa, sociojurídica y del patrimonio cultural.

Abstract

Sorti en septembre 2020, cet ouvrage méritait rapidement une deuxième édition. Non pas que le " fil rouge " qui en constitue l’armature ait été désavoué, bien au contraire. Lors des deux années écoulées, la souveraineté fut plus que jamais " déchaînée " (R-J Dupuy) en malmenant les bénéfices du multilatéralisme et en défiant les acquis en matière de protection des droits de l'homme. Il fallait alors intégrer les développements les plus saillants qui se sont manifestés jusqu’à la fin du mois de décembre 2022. Deux électrochocs politiques confirment la thèse de cet ouvrage : la guerre en Ukraine et l’exclusion corrélative de la Russie de Vladimir Poutine du Conseil de l’Europe ; la réapparition de la terreur au Nicaragua et la dénonciation, par le gouvernement de Daniel Ortega, de la Charte de l’Organisation des États américains. La souveraineté n’est certainement pas morte. Elle se manifeste de façon paroxystique avec son lot de désolation. Sur un plan plus général, il fallait actualiser, au fil de l'eau, les éléments les plus significatifs relatifs au fonctionnement des 3 Cours, mentionner les approches jurisprudentielles les plus marquantes, intégrer des analyses doctrinales novatrices. L'histoire humaine du XXIème siècle renoue avec l'absolutisme, l'autoritarisme, la violence. Les acquis issus de la fin de la IIème guerre mondiale s'effritent devant la volonté d'autocrates qui n'ont, pour seule imagination, que la prédation. Gageons que celles et ceux pour qui la force de l'imagination se situe ailleurs, puissent faire entendre leur voix. L'Humanité mérite d'être à la hauteur des urgences sociales et environnementales.
