The ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (eBook, PDF)

Prevention, Mitigation, Remedies and Redress

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book systematically documents the practice of the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR) on the protection of human rights. It provides a template of universal standards, spanning prevention, response and mitigation, and redress and remedies, from which to gauge the performance of the AICHR. The evidence points to a Commission that leaves much to be desired and whose protective function needs significant improvement. Nevertheless, the National Representatives of Member States to the AICHR have taken important and positive steps that lay the groundwork for a more protection-oriented Commission. The work offers avenues for the National Representatives, the ASEAN Member States and civil society to enhance the protection function of the AICHR and to thus more closely align it with hard-won international standards and best practices. The book will be of interest to representatives of the AICHR, human rights practitioners, ASEAN policymakers, and academics, students, researchers and policymakers in the areas of international relations, human rights law and Asian studies.
